Personal letter from John Drew to Joe Vann

Scope and Content Notes

John Drew wrote from Eufaula Station, Creek Nation to his friend Joe Vann. Drew told Vann that the railroad was more lonesome than it was before. Drew also asks about his horses and how the girls are getting along. Drew told Vann that he never heard from the girls anymore and he thought it was because Vann was telling the girl tales about him and he was not there to tell them otherwise. Drew teased Vann saying that he was better looking and that was why he was telling the girls tales. Folder 402
