[Letter from John C. Wallis to J. D. and D. C. Giddings - January 9, 1871]
Letter from John C. Wallis to J. D. and D. C. Giddings.

Wallis describes his financial distress and his reluctance to pay his liability. He has even considered selling out the University under the Deed of Trust to a Mr. Browning and himself in order to settle the matter. He asks for the brothers' advice on this matter and for details about payment to E.J. Fettock.
