Col. White was involved in a number of\n         mercantile interests (up to some forty-five at one time) in\n         addition to the saltworks at \n          Saltville, Washington County . This\n         included business interests in the states of \n          Virginia , \n          Tennessee , \n          Alabama , and \n          Georgia , and investments in lead mines in\n          Wythe County , iron furnaces, cotton\n         plantations, and slaves. His property was worth at least\n         $750,000 at the time of his death. Unfortunately, Col. White's\n         business papers do not furnish a complete picture of any of\n         these interests.","Col. White moved to \n          Abingdon, Virginia about 1795. Prior to\n         his arrival there, White had worked for \n          Talbot, Jones \u0026 Company , a \n          Baltimore merchandising house, who\n         supplied him with enough goods to set up his own business. He\n         married Miss \n          Eliza Wilson in 1798 and began expanding\n         his business by becoming a partner of such men as Mr.\n         Henderson in \n          Abingdon and \n          William Lynn in \n          Alabama .","One of his most important business enterprises was the\n         leasing of the saltworks at \n          Saltville, Virginia , from the executors\n         of the \n          William King estate. Because the chain of\n         ownership and control of the saltworks is somewhat confusing,\n         the following short history of ownership will clarify White's\n         own involvement in the property.","General \n          Francis Preston and his family had owned\n         the salt lick when \n          William King (1769-1808) purchased the\n         land west of their claim in 1795. By 1799, King had erected\n         furnaces and began the manufacture of salt. He also rented the\n          Preston Salines until his death in 1808.\n         According to his will, the salt works were carried on by his\n         brother, \n          James King , \n          William Trigg , and \n          William King 's wife, \n          Mary Trigg King , and their executors\n         until 1819, when it was leased to \n          John Sanders . Sanders sold his lease\n         rights to \n          James White who leased the operations\n         until 1833. Other individuals leased this property until the\n         formation of the \n          Holston Salt \u0026 Plaster Company in\n         1864. The \n          King Saltworks produced from 90,000 to\n         100,000 bushels of salt per year. During the Civil War, it was\n         the largest supplier of salt to the Confederacy.","The business papers of Col. White contain several items\n         related to his salt interests including: papers concerning the\n         estate of \n          William King and the saltworks (October\n         27, 1820; May 14, 1821; April 3, June 7, \u0026 October 4,\n         1823; and September 1834); extracts from \n          John Hardies ' disposition concerning salt\n         prices, 1824-1829 (April 7, 1829); and other legal papers\n         regarding the saltworks (May 26, 1830; September 8, 1831;\n         April 1833; November 7, 1834; March 12 \u0026 September 27,\n         1836; May 26, 1837; and August 15, 1838); a valuation of\n         buildings at \n          Saltville (undated) and a memorandum\n         regarding the account books at \n          Saltville (undated).","His business papers also include the balances on the \n          Saltville books (1820-1835). Papers\n         concerning cotton shipments (1837-1838) and his other\n         mercantile interests (August 25, 1821 and April 16, 1835) are\n         present but do not adequately represent the extent of his\n         involvement.","The settlement of the estate of Col. \n          James White was not completed until 1878\n         and the records in the second series show the extent of\n         White's assets at his death, especially the slave and land\n         inventories (ca. 1838), a notebook regarding the estate of \n          James White , 1843-1863, and a commonplace\n         book record of the division of his property (ca. 1851).","An inventory entitled \"Inventory and appraisement of the\n         personal property belonging to the estate of Col.

These closely related\n         families were two of the leading participants in the business\n         and political life of Southwest \n          Virginia during the nineteenth century.\n         The business papers of Col. \n          James White (1770-1838), other papers\n         concerning the settlement of his estate, and the business and\n         correspondence of the \n          White family , chiefly of \n          William Young Conn White (1812-1882), all\n         contain material relating to the development of business and\n         industry in Southwest \n          Virginia and its economic ties to \n          Tennessee and \n          Alabama before and after the Civil\n         War.","The first two series of the \n          White family papers contain Col. \n          James White 's own business papers,\n         1807-1838, and papers relating to the settlement of his vast\n         estate, 1838-1878. Col. White was involved in a number of\n         mercantile interests (up to some forty-five at one time) in\n         addition to the saltworks at \n          Saltville, Washington County . This\n         included business interests in the states of \n          Virginia , \n          Tennessee , \n          Alabama , and \n          Georgia , and investments in lead mines in\n          Wythe County , iron furnaces, cotton\n         plantations, and slaves. His property was worth at least\n         $750,000 at the time of his death. Unfortunately, Col. White's\n         business papers do not furnish a complete picture of any of\n         these interests.","Col. White moved to \n          Abingdon, Virginia about 1795. Prior to\n         his arrival there, White had worked for \n          Talbot, Jones \u0026 Company , a \n          Baltimore merchandising house, who\n         supplied him with enough goods to set up his own business. He\n         married Miss \n          Eliza Wilson in 1798 and began expanding\n         his business by becoming a partner of such men as Mr.\n         Henderson in \n          Abingdon and \n          William Lynn in \n          Alabama .","One of his most important business enterprises was the\n         leasing of the saltworks at \n          Saltville, Virginia , from the executors\n         of the \n          William King estate. Because the chain of\n         ownership and control of the saltworks is somewhat confusing,\n         the following short history of ownership will clarify White's\n         own involvement in the property.","General \n          Francis Preston and his family had owned\n         the salt lick when \n          William King (1769-1808) purchased the\n         land west of their claim in 1795. By 1799, King had erected\n         furnaces and began the manufacture of salt. He also rented the\n          Preston Salines until his death in 1808.\n         According to his will, the salt works were carried on by his\n         brother, \n          James King , \n          William Trigg , and \n          William King 's wife, \n          Mary Trigg King , and their executors\n         until 1819, when it was leased to \n          John Sanders . Sanders sold his lease\n         rights to \n          James White who leased the operations\n         until 1833. Other individuals leased this property until the\n         formation of the \n          Holston Salt \u0026 Plaster Company in\n         1864. The \n          King Saltworks produced from 90,000 to\n         100,000 bushels of salt per year. During the Civil War, it was\n         the largest supplier of salt to the Confederacy.","The business papers of Col. White contain several items\n         related to his salt interests including: papers concerning the\n         estate of \n          William King and the saltworks (October\n         27, 1820; May 14, 1821; April 3, June 7, \u0026 October 4,\n         1823; and September 1834); extracts from \n          John Hardies ' disposition concerning salt\n         prices, 1824-1829 (April 7, 1829); and other legal papers\n         regarding the saltworks (May 26, 1830; September 8, 1831;\n         April 1833; November 7, 1834; March 12 \u0026 September 27,\n         1836; May 26, 1837; and August 15, 1838); a valuation of\n         buildings at \n          Saltville (undated) and a memorandum\n         regarding the account books at \n          Saltville (undated).","His business papers also include the balances on the \n          Saltville books (1820-1835). Papers\n         concerning cotton shipments (1837-1838) and his other\n         mercantile interests (August 25, 1821 and April 16, 1835) are\n         present but do not adequately represent the extent of his\n         involvement.","The settlement of the estate of Col. \n          James White was not completed until 1878\n         and the records in the second series show the extent of\n         White's assets at his death, especially the slave and land\n         inventories (ca. 1838), a notebook regarding the estate of \n          James White , 1843-1863, and a commonplace\n         book record of the division of his property (ca. 1851).","An inventory entitled \"Inventory and appraisement of the\n         personal property belonging to the estate of Col. James White\n         deceased\" is an especially useful summation of Col. White's\n         economic status at the time of his death. It contains entries\n         for: merchandise (pp. 1-18); small notes (pp. 19-37); salt due\n         bills (p. 38); appraisements of property in \n          Clay County, Kentucky , and the \n          Limestone and \n          Bellefonte Plantations in \n          Alabama (pp. 39-44); sales of personal\n         property (pp. 45-46); dividends, cash received and notes (p.\n         47); various agreements (pp. 60-121); and settlement of the\n         estate (pp. 126-129). The volume also has notes regarding the\n         periodic examination of the accounts by the commissioner which\n         were recorded by the court, 1839-1871.","The correspondence of the \n          White family includes many letters\n         concerning business matters; of special note are the letters\n         of \n          Thomas Wilson White (1817-? ) to his\n         brother \n          William Young Conn White (1812-1882), both\n         sons of Col. \n          James White . \n          Thomas White was the manager of the\n         family's plantation \" \n          Bellefonte , \" near \n          Huntsville, Alabama , and his letters give\n         a detailed account of its affairs (Feb., Nov., and Dec. 1843;\n         Jan. 1844; Sep., Nov., and Dec. 1845; Feb., Apr., and Dec.\n         1846; Jun. 1847; Jul. 1848; Mar. and May 1849; Mar. and Jul.\n         1851; Feb.-Apr. 1852; Apr. 1854; Oct. 1857; Jan., Apr., \u0026\n         Jun. 1858; Jul., \u0026 Sep.-Oct. 1859; Nov. 1862; Jul. 1874;\n         Mar., Apr., and Dec. 1876; Feb. and Jun. 1877; and Mar.\n         1878).","Other topics of interest in the \n          White family correspondence include: slavery\n         (January 1, 1840; August 26, 1841; April 25 \u0026 November 29,\n         1846; January 23, 1858 and July 16, 1859); the salt\n         merchandising business (November 28, 1842), banking and\n         financial difficulties (February 9, 1843; June 1, 1847; and\n         October 13, \u0026 16, 1857); and cotton prices (January 21,\n         1844; November 23, 1845; February 28, 1846; and April 29,\n         1854).","The fourth group of papers include the legal,\n         miscellaneous, and business papers of the \n          White family . Of note in the legal papers\n         are the following: an inventory and appraisement of the\n         estates of \n          Eliza White and \n          Eleanor W.

A few letters relate events in the Civil\n         War. An October 17, 1861 letter speaks of an overcoat factory\n         founded by \n          Staunton women. In a letter to \n          Maggie Cochran (July 1, 1862) the victory\n         over McClellan at \n          Frasyers Farm is described.

The letter of September 7, 1857\n         mentions the status of their business operations. An\n         interesting letter (June 27, 1848) gives a view of slavery and\n         abolitionists. \n          Nannie Cochran 's death and its effects is\n         mentioned in August 20, 1863.","Letters between \n          Howe Peyton Cochran and his mother \n          Margaret Lynn (Lewis) Cochran are about\n         personal affairs and the Civil War. The early letters concern \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's attendance of the \n          Hanover Academy where he was very bored\n         and often homesick except when he traveled to \n          Richmond . Some interesting Civil War\n         letters are July 27, Sept 5, 14, \u0026 20, 1861. \n          Howe Peyton Cochran left the active\n         service when a substitute was bought for him (May 23, 1862). A\n         n.d. letter mentions \n          Monticello hospital being condemned due to\n         Typhoid fever.

(Carrington) Cochran (married\n         December 18, 1860), written during the Civil War, are chiefly\n         personal in nature but many contain a little information about\n         the war. Some of the more important letters are as follows.\n         His letter of January 5, 1861 describes the commanding\n         officers of \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's regiment ( \n          1st regiment Virginia Artillery ) which\n         included General Magruder, Colonels Sulakowski, \n          Tom Cobb , \n          Howell Cobb , Montagne, Ward, and Major\n         Brown. Letters of December 8, 11, 13, \u0026 16 detail\n         preparations for an attack that never occurred. Letters of\n         February 24, 25 discuss the problems in the company and an\n         expedition that did not start. The letters of March 1862 also\n         give the problems of the company and preparations for a large\n         battle near \n          Yorktown . The letters of April 1862\n         contain references to the skirmishes occurring at \n          Yorktown . The letters of May 9 and 14,\n         1862 gives a sketch of the battle of \n          Williamsburg which \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's regiment did not\n         participate in. Nearly every letter also contains a plan to\n         get out of the service or at least out of his present company\n         and into an office job: Some of the schemes include becoming a\n         teacher at \n          Randolph Macon , becoming a clerk in the\n         war department, or joining his brother \n          James Cochran 's unit. A son ( \n          Campbell Carrington Cochran , named for \n          Nannie Cochran 's brother who died during\n         the war) was born on July 31, 1863, and \n          Nannie Cochran died, apparently as a\n         result of complications from childbirth, on August 11,\n         1863.","Joseph D. Cochran 's application for a \n          University of Missouri chemistry chair\n         mentions his teachers (August 8, 1890) while at the \n          University of Virginia and \n          College of Richmond . The letter of August\n         21, 1890 states he received references from Professors \n          [John William] Mallet , \n          [Francis Perry] Dunnington , \n          [George Frederick] Holmes , and \n          [Ormond] Stone of the \n          University of Virginia , Professor Puryear\n         of the \n          College of Richmond , and his present\n         congressman \n          [Henry St. George] Tucker .","In Letters to \n          Campbell Carrington Cochran , two stirring\n         accounts of the virtue of \n          Nannie Cochran and her death are given on\n         the first birthday of \n          Campbell Carrington Cochran , July 31,\n         1864.","In Letters to \n          Henry Cochran family affairs are\n         discussed. An October 11, 1862 letter mentions prices of basic\n         foods and how the state is covered with blood, \"Turn whichever\n         way you may nothing meets your eye, but maimed and bleeding\n         soldiers.\" A January 15, 1863 letter mentions the death of \n          Maggie Cochran from Typhoid Fever and\n         pneumonia. On March 18, 1863, there is a reference to the\n         battle of \n          Culpepper . A March 31, 1863 letter\n         mentions houses and hospitals being destroyed to use the wood\n         for fuel. An April 16, 1863 letter mentions the prices of\n         food.","Letters to \n          Howe Peyton Cochran contain more letters\n         about family affairs. Howe was perusing a teaching job at \n          Randolph Macon and the letters of November\n         20, \u0026 27, 1861 mention the peculiarity of the trustees who\n         wished for their teachers to be Methodist and in the military.\n         A letter of April 14, 1862 mentions the death of \n          Campbell Carrington ( \n          Nannie Cochran 's brother) after the\n         battle of \n          Cournif on April 11, 1862.","Letters to Colonel and Mrs. \n          James C.

Cochran , and daughter \n          Anne Cochran who went to \n          Gainesville, Florida because of \n          John Cochran 's ill health in 1886. The\n         letters give the progression of \n          John Cochran 's sickness which did not\n         improve substantially and eventually caused his death in\n         February 1887 after his return to \n          Staunton .","Letters to \n          John Cochran contains an interesting\n         letter (February 17, 1830) on the price and selling of\n         hogs.","Letters to \n          Margaret Lynn (Lewis) Cochran contain\n         letters from her brother \n          Thomas Preston Lewis who served with the \n          War Department in the 1850's. There are\n         two interesting letters: January 5, 1852 which mentions the\n         visit of a Magyar to \n          Congress who apparently impressed\n         everyone, and the concern of the American government over \n          Napoleon Bonaparte who was coming to power\n         in \n          France ; and, March 6, 1859 which mentions\n         the factional wars going on in congress and the affect it had\n         on the treasury.","The first few letters to \n          Nannie (Carrington) Cochran are from\n         relations and friends unable to attend her and \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's wedding. The letter\n         of June 10, 1861 is from \n          John Lewis Cochran and contains very\n         interesting Civil War information, including the Union's\n         treatment of prisoners.","The letters to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis have been removed\n         from a letter book containing mostly business letters. There\n         is an index which has been placed at the back of the second\n         folder. \n          Thomas Preston Lewis received the right to\n         practice law in \n          Virginia on September 3, 1847. He received\n         appointments in the \n          census bureau (October 8, 1850 -#48), and\n         later the \n          War Department based on recommendations by\n          Alexander Hugh Holmes Stuart (November 15,\n         1850.) \n          Thomas Preston Lewis ' ancestors fought in\n         the battle of \n          Point Pleasant and an attempt had been\n         made to have that battle declared the first of the\n         revolutionary war (August 24, 1858 -#1). A no date letter (#8)\n         contains an inventory of debts \n          Thomas Preston Lewis has at a store and\n         gives prices. Letters of December 29, 1853 (#16 and #20) are\n         introduction letters written by \n          John Buchanan Floyd . October 21, 1851\n         (#48) is a letter from \n          William Sparrow . March 6, 1866 (#159)\n         states that \n          Thomas Preston Lewis lost all land in the\n         war and is now broke. Letters of February 14, 1866 (#161),\n         January 21, 1867 (#162) concern \n          Thomas Preston Lewis trying to collect on\n         his debts. \n          Thomas Preston Lewis attempted to have his\n         political disability resulting from service with the\n         confederacy removed (February 25, 1869 -#166, January 24, 1870\n         -#174, January 29, 1870 -#175.) Apparently this attempt was\n         successful because \n          Thomas Preston Lewis received help from \n          John F. Lewis in getting an appointment\n         (October 6, 1869 -#169, March 29, 1870 -#183.) \n          John F. Lewis had assisted \n          Thomas Preston Lewis before getting him\n         appointed as an assistant to the registrar in 1867 (September\n         28, 1867 -#189.) December 23, 1869 (#168) is from \n          B. F. Ballard and mentions that he will\n         call for a new \n          West Virginia constitution. Three letters\n         concern the sale of land held in \n          Iowa which \n          Thomas Preston Lewis got from his debt\n         collection (July 13, 1869 -#171, May 12, 1868 -#173, and July\n         25, 1869 -#174.) An item dated April 20, 1871 (#180) is a\n         notice placed by \n          Thomas Preston Lewis to bring all claims\n         for the pensions of veterans of the War of 1812. An August 21,\n         1871 (#196) letter contains an analysis of \n          Rawley Springs in \n          Rockingham County, Virginia . Letters of\n         December 7, 1870 (#204,) February 4, 1873 (#204,) and December\n         18, 1874 (#206) refer to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis starting and running\n         a school for boys. The school must not have been too\n         successful because the letters of November 12, 1873 and\n         December 1874 (both #207) mention relatives sending what money\n         they can to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis . On September 10,\n         1874 (#209) there is an interesting letter on the \n          Florida school system.","Letters to \n          Ann M.

A\n         letter in June 1836 mentions the death of their sister\n         Mary.","Letters to \n          Joseph Smith contain many applications for\n         loans. \n          Joseph Smith served in the \n          General Assembly from December 1, 1817 to\n         February 26, 1818 (December 2, 1817.) There is a letter dated\n         January 26, 1832 from \n          R. S. Brooke which concerns the debate in\n         the \n          General Assembly over slavery and the\n         conflict abolition has with personal property and\n         compensation. An item of January 13, 1860 values the land held\n         by \n          Joseph Smith to be $74,900.","Letters to \n          Joseph Smith from \n          William Widdifield are mainly concerned\n         with the collection of a debt from \n          David Paul Brown . A letter of March 3,\n         1862 mentions \n          Joseph Smith 's brothers \n          Abraham Smith and \n          Silas H.

In a letter to \n          Maggie Cochran (July 1, 1862) the victory\n         over McClellan at \n          Frasyers Farm is described.

A\n         n.d. letter mentions \n          Monticello hospital being condemned due to\n         Typhoid fever.

(Carrington) Cochran (married\n         December 18, 1860), written during the Civil War, are chiefly\n         personal in nature but many contain a little information about\n         the war. Some of the more important letters are as follows.\n         His letter of January 5, 1861 describes the commanding\n         officers of \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's regiment ( \n          1st regiment Virginia Artillery ) which\n         included General Magruder, Colonels Sulakowski, \n          Tom Cobb , \n          Howell Cobb , Montagne, Ward, and Major\n         Brown. Letters of December 8, 11, 13, \u0026 16 detail\n         preparations for an attack that never occurred. Letters of\n         February 24, 25 discuss the problems in the company and an\n         expedition that did not start. The letters of March 1862 also\n         give the problems of the company and preparations for a large\n         battle near \n          Yorktown . The letters of April 1862\n         contain references to the skirmishes occurring at \n          Yorktown . The letters of May 9 and 14,\n         1862 gives a sketch of the battle of \n          Williamsburg which \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's regiment did not\n         participate in. Nearly every letter also contains a plan to\n         get out of the service or at least out of his present company\n         and into an office job: Some of the schemes include becoming a\n         teacher at \n          Randolph Macon , becoming a clerk in the\n         war department, or joining his brother \n          James Cochran 's unit. A son ( \n          Campbell Carrington Cochran , named for \n          Nannie Cochran 's brother who died during\n         the war) was born on July 31, 1863, and \n          Nannie Cochran died, apparently as a\n         result of complications from childbirth, on August 11,\n         1863.","Joseph D.

The\n         letters give the progression of \n          John Cochran 's sickness which did not\n         improve substantially and eventually caused his death in\n         February 1887 after his return to \n          Staunton .","Letters to \n          John Cochran contains an interesting\n         letter (February 17, 1830) on the price and selling of\n         hogs.","Letters to \n          Margaret Lynn (Lewis) Cochran contain\n         letters from her brother \n          Thomas Preston Lewis who served with the \n          War Department in the 1850's. There are\n         two interesting letters: January 5, 1852 which mentions the\n         visit of a Magyar to \n          Congress who apparently impressed\n         everyone, and the concern of the American government over \n          Napoleon Bonaparte who was coming to power\n         in \n          France ; and, March 6, 1859 which mentions\n         the factional wars going on in congress and the affect it had\n         on the treasury.","The first few letters to \n          Nannie (Carrington) Cochran are from\n         relations and friends unable to attend her and \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's wedding. The letter\n         of June 10, 1861 is from \n          John Lewis Cochran and contains very\n         interesting Civil War information, including the Union's\n         treatment of prisoners.","The letters to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis have been removed\n         from a letter book containing mostly business letters. There\n         is an index which has been placed at the back of the second\n         folder. \n          Thomas Preston Lewis received the right to\n         practice law in \n          Virginia on September 3, 1847. He received\n         appointments in the \n          census bureau (October 8, 1850 -#48), and\n         later the \n          War Department based on recommendations by\n          Alexander Hugh Holmes Stuart (November 15,\n         1850.) \n          Thomas Preston Lewis ' ancestors fought in\n         the battle of \n          Point Pleasant and an attempt had been\n         made to have that battle declared the first of the\n         revolutionary war (August 24, 1858 -#1). A no date letter (#8)\n         contains an inventory of debts \n          Thomas Preston Lewis has at a store and\n         gives prices. Letters of December 29, 1853 (#16 and #20) are\n         introduction letters written by \n          John Buchanan Floyd . October 21, 1851\n         (#48) is a letter from \n          William Sparrow . March 6, 1866 (#159)\n         states that \n          Thomas Preston Lewis lost all land in the\n         war and is now broke. Letters of February 14, 1866 (#161),\n         January 21, 1867 (#162) concern \n          Thomas Preston Lewis trying to collect on\n         his debts. \n          Thomas Preston Lewis attempted to have his\n         political disability resulting from service with the\n         confederacy removed (February 25, 1869 -#166, January 24, 1870\n         -#174, January 29, 1870 -#175.) Apparently this attempt was\n         successful because \n          Thomas Preston Lewis received help from \n          John F. Lewis in getting an appointment\n         (October 6, 1869 -#169, March 29, 1870 -#183.) \n          John F. Lewis had assisted \n          Thomas Preston Lewis before getting him\n         appointed as an assistant to the registrar in 1867 (September\n         28, 1867 -#189.) December 23, 1869 (#168) is from \n          B. F. Ballard and mentions that he will\n         call for a new \n          West Virginia constitution. Three letters\n         concern the sale of land held in \n          Iowa which \n          Thomas Preston Lewis got from his debt\n         collection (July 13, 1869 -#171, May 12, 1868 -#173, and July\n         25, 1869 -#174.) An item dated April 20, 1871 (#180) is a\n         notice placed by \n          Thomas Preston Lewis to bring all claims\n         for the pensions of veterans of the War of 1812. An August 21,\n         1871 (#196) letter contains an analysis of \n          Rawley Springs in \n          Rockingham County, Virginia . Letters of\n         December 7, 1870 (#204,) February 4, 1873 (#204,) and December\n         18, 1874 (#206) refer to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis starting and running\n         a school for boys. The school must not have been too\n         successful because the letters of November 12, 1873 and\n         December 1874 (both #207) mention relatives sending what money\n         they can to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis . On September 10,\n         1874 (#209) there is an interesting letter on the \n          Florida school system.","Letters to \n          Ann M.

There is a letter dated\n         January 26, 1832 from \n          R. S. Brooke which concerns the debate in\n         the \n          General Assembly over slavery and the\n         conflict abolition has with personal property and\n         compensation. An item of January 13, 1860 values the land held\n         by \n          Joseph Smith to be $74,900.","Letters to \n          Joseph Smith from \n          William Widdifield are mainly concerned\n         with the collection of a debt from \n          David Paul Brown .
