He suggests that this collection should be kept together, possibly at the Virginia Historical Society. He plans to have the collection arranged chronologically and bound. Joseph Bryan, President of the Virginia Historical Society, writes about the potential loan/gift.","Five letters. N. Daniel invites him to the Presbytery at Bethlehem on the 26th, 27th, 28th and 29th. Dr. A. Duane of New York answers Carrington's query about his eye problems with a possible diagnosis and treatments. Sue Wainwright writes two letters that suggest they may have an interest in each other, but questions why he is always too busy.","Carrington has \"the grippe\" in January and his eyes continue to bother him. On January 9, W. W. Galt writes from Arabia that \"probably about this time...you will have left the estate of 'single blessedness' and will have settled down\". But other letters from family and friends during this time period do not mention a wedding and he appears to be unmarried due to his activities. Mary B. Galt writes often to Carrington, giving news of her family, William Wilson Galt and his navy travels and the Galt family in Norfolk. Uncle John Carrington continues to send financial accountings. One note from Carrington to Uncle John discusses a misunderstanding about money owed. In January and February, Carrington prepares for a visit to Norfolk, writing the Carringtons and Galts about his plans. Annie Galt of Williamsburg, Virginia suggests he come when the weather is nicer. Emma Early Stringfellow, a cousin from Texas, scolds him for never answering her letters.

Topics once again include the sale of tobacco and other farm items plus business correspondence concerning the farm, banking and stocks. Includes a membership card to the Merrimac Club for twenty days. Beginning in late 1896 and early 1897, many business letters are typed rather than handwritten.","Cousin Kate Flournoy asks if Carrington has a picture of Colonel William Cabell and DC Jackson writes a full description of a carriage and phaeton he is selling and various relatives and business write of farm and local matters. A list \"Patrons of Miss K. Boyds' School\" is included. Carrington Grigsby met, courted and then became engaged to Miss Mary H. Boyd in 1897. She is a teacher, possibly at the Shepperson home. By December 13, something occurred and the engagement was ended. Correspondence from friends, family, and Miss Boyd. Mary B. Galt writes that she would not \"call on Miss M. Hugh Blair because it would be premature.\" On November 10, Mrs. Mary B. Galt writes \"I am truly delighted that she has at last decided positively...and I have written her a real nice sisterly note\". Miss Boyd writes, \"Thank you for what you said in regard to my fine judgement. I promise you that all of my influence (if I have any) shall be used in your behalf.\" Cousin Emma Lou Stringfellow writes to Mary H. Boyd in which she says \"I know he is one of nature's best nobleman...\" and gives many other attributes of Carrington. The December 13 breakup letter from Mary H. Boyd says, \"if I could have been launched in to matrimony on the high-tide of my feelings...all would have been well but those things that have broken my dream of yours...frightened and chilled me and I cannot find it in my heart to forgive the fate that makes it so\". John Whitehead writes, \"I presume...the estrangement is permanent...there are thousands of lovely ladies in Virginia.\" Some undated letters from Miss Boyd are at the end of the folder. Mrs. Cynthia B. T. Coleman of Williamsburg answers a letter from Carrington about purchasing two chairs belonging to her Uncle William Randolph. She jokes that she barely has two hundred cents much less $200 to buy them. She notes \"if Randolfhians is at such a premium I think I had better make my fortune selling off my silver and glass that he brought with him from England. Poor as I am I think I will keep these treasures and hand them down to my children's children.\"","Letter from Mary Boyd to Carrington discussing the breakup, the rumors around Smithville and how well he is behaving like a \"manly man.\" A draft of a letter from Carrington to Mary Boyd about the termination of their engagement. Other relatives and friends give him support after the termination, especially John Whitehead, Nancy Daniel and Cousin Stringfellow. Nancy Daniel notes that Mary Boyd only wanted \"to carry on a fliration...and she did not love any body but Mr. F.\" Miss Shewall tells of seeing Mary Boyd with Cabell Flourney and they might be engaged.   Nancy Daniel continues to write letters asking why he doesn't write or visit often, suggesting he thinks she is uninteresting and wanting to know all about his activities, especially with ladies. Emily Christian from William and Mary asks if he wants a subscription to The William and Mary Quarterly. Mary B. Galt is in Presbyterian Hospital in New York because of possible heart problems. Walter Anderson asks about his Blair Family ancestors. Langhorne Crosby is desperate to know if \"Willie Galt\" is all right since he is in Manila. Sue Wainwright writes, \"When you get this - I will have left Charlotte - I am too sick at heart to write - goodby - God bless you.\" T. P. Wilson responds to his query about how to kill tobacco worms. Samuel Hannah apologises, asks forgiveness and explains what happened when he stopped by Mrs. Galt's house after he'd had too much to drink. Includes correspondence about farm crops and implements, business transactions and local and family matters with invitations from family and local residents. Includes a November 3 letter from William Wilson Galt in Jamaica to Mrs. Mary B. Galt, list of Kathryn Boyd's patrons for 1898 and a letter from Mrs. Mary B. Galt saying her husband has returned from Manila.","Three letters. Two letters written for Beverly Thomas asking for an extension for a payment for land and one note requesting flour.","1900 Mrs. Mary B. Galt writes that her son, Hugh, is better but \"I don't want him to return to Wm \u0026 Mary at all, for I don't believe they can get decent food there at all.\" Samuel Read asks how he can obtain a copy of \"History of South Side Virginia\" by Hugh Blair Grigsby. Nannie Daniel writes \"You seem to have quite a fondness for widows. Now there are four...I think it is time you were getting married...some one said you were in love with yourself and would never love any body else.\" Mary B. and William Wilson Galt have a new son named Carrington Grigsby Galt. Carrington is a member of the State Board of Agriculture. He still receives letters from friends who tell him about ladies visiting the area. The Virginia Historical Society asks him about some newspapers that he had talked about giving to them. Mary B. Galt speaks of Miss Nannie who is looking after the children and wishes that Carrington was living such a family life. Includes letters from relatives and neighbors. Appears that he is helping some of his poorer relations and neighbors. Includes correspondence about farm purchases such as seeds, fertilizer and machinery and selling farm products. 1908 Correspondence 2 letters.
