Wolf, Charles E. 1830 Letter.

Wolf writes to his father to say his health has improved while he has been in Lexington, Ky. He believes this is because the cultured atmosphere is conducive to a sober life. He believes that Maysville, where he is writing from is a seat of inequity. He discusses the ill advised policies of Pres. Jackson and feels this will advance the political future of "Harry" Clay. He also comments on the problems his father is having as Governor of Penssylvania.
