Letter to Littleton Waller Tazewell, 1825 May 6.

Tazewell sends a statement of expenses to his father with excuses for not writing sooner. He explains that changed lecture hours due to Professor Long's return to England necessitated a changed writing time and that he suffers from rheumatism in his right arm as well. He itemizes his travel expenses from Norfolk and costs of room, board, furnishings and books in Charlottesville, notes that the University requires fees to be paid in advance, and encloses eight receipts. Many of the receipts are from Simeon B. Chapman, one of the six original hotel keepers hired to board students. His bill for room furnishings is itemized by shillings and pence and then converted to dollars and cents at the rate of six shillings to a dollar.
