AYinfrer, to w^hom I had a letter, unfortunately was ab- sent. 1 was sorry for this, being told he was a very amia- ] ble man. To my infinite pleasure, I met with a friend in \ Petersburg; an old and much esteemed acquaintance,; Thompson Caputon, Esq. But my engagements were such, that I was forced to tear myself away from my old and new friends. Mr. C. is one of the finest looking men' in Petersburg — amiable in his disposition, and a gentleman- in his manners. Petersburg is a port of entry, o...wns considerable ship- ping, and contains inhabitants. This nursery of he- ; roes, has distinguished itself in three wars, viz: the French, the revolutionary, and the last war. I have often heard my husband speak of their gallantry and courage in the battle of Petersburg, fought in the revolution, under Gen. Lafayette, in which he himself was engaged; and every one remembers the volunteers of Petersburg, last war, and their gallantry while in the service. I saw them on their way to join the army, and also on their return.
