Content

Johnson recommends to Jackson the case of Jackson's old friend "Reeside" who "will be reduced if he is not settled with literally." Johnson writes that if Jackson would speak to Mr [Martin] Van Buren, all would be right, as Reeside wants what Mr. Barry allowed him and no more. Johnson closes with the statement, "Remember what Reeside has done for us all."
