Letters to Charles James Faulkner [manuscript], 1873 and 1884.

Cooke sends information on his father and his brother Philip, and notes as an aside that he is "laboring under my distressing annual attack of hayfever, which paralyzes me wellnigh, physically and mentally." In the second letter he discusses lecturing "before your Historical Society" and the use of his Virginia history in schools.
