Robert B. McAfee, who had recently returned to Elm Spring, Kentucky, from Colombia, writes to his friend, George Bohon, living in Marion County, Missouri. The letter, dated 25 September 1838, indicates that he is a strong supporter of the Democratic party and President Van Buren and anticipates his re-election in 1840. He feels that the opposition party contains no decent men in their ranks.
