[Letter from Elizabeth Upshur Teackle to her husband Littleton D. Teackle, November 17, 1807]

Letter from Elizabeth Upshur Teackle to her husband, Littleton D. Teackle, detailing delays in her journey home. She stopped at Dr. Winder's due to a lame horse, and is slowly making her way home. She's heard that a schooner matching the description of one of their boats, the Princess Anne, was seen in the Wicomico river, returning from the West Indies. She says she recently wrote him by Robert Barraud Taylor, who was to post it in the Western Shore mail. She says Grace D. Taylor Eyre just had a boy who is doing well, and that Comfort Winder is also pregnant.
