A letter from Mildred Ann Bullitt (Oxmoor) to her son, Thomas Walker Bullitt (Fort Delaware), dated September 4th, 1864. Mildred writes that the men enslaved by Mr. Dixon (possibly Senator Archibald Dixon, Susan Peachy Bullitt's husband) have either died or left the plantation. Mildred writes, "Mr. D's (Dixon) men are all gone, as well as ours. Tinah and 'your mammy' stick and say they'll hang on as do some others." It is unclear if Mildred is referring to the people she enslaved running away, being sent down to Cottonwood, or dying of disease. It is also unclear who "mammy" is.
