This letter mentions freedom and free government. He states, "Could I forget that I was a free man or that I knew anything of the nature of a free government I should be happy but the remembrance of these adds to the horrors of slavery."
In this letter, Campbell tells Brown of a "vast multitude of immigrants" passing through the wilderness to Kentucky and Cumberland without any trouble from the Native Americans. Goes on to say that there is a probability peace will be broken from the war against the Creek Indians.
