Title

Letter to Mr. Carroll on the Farmland in Oregon

Description

Letter addressed to Mr. Carroll from McDonough Bainbridge describing his journey through different farmlands. McDonough proceeds to inform Mr. Carroll that Portland is the most inhabited city in Oregon at the time, but just twelve miles away is some of the best farmland in the country. McDonough explains how his brother, Willard Hall's, farm is coming along and how he has had a lot of success. Originally Mrs. Carroll had mailed a letter that was received by McDonough, so he expressed his gratitude for that and wishes to see them both sometime soon. The original letter is accompanied by a typed transcript. This is one item from the Rees Family Correspondence Collection, which includes many letters between family members in Oregon and Ohio.
