Title	Black Republican Administration
Creator	Chandler, N. A. (1818-1880)
Description	Chandler writes that the times have been “running very rough in the Spring and Summer as well as with most others.” He blames the U.S. Government for mining stock failures, and mentions that he “resigned [his] position in the Lady Bryan mine on account of the hard times.” He encourages Jane to write oftener.

Transcription	Virginia Aug 14th 1864 Dear Wife I received a letter from you last week. Harry also received one I am well as usual, so is Harry or was when he left five days since he has gone out to a new District with a party of six prospecting about seventy five miles towards [illegible]. Business is very dull here at present. Harry has had little to do since he has been here and was anxious to go on the trip. I am very sorry to hear Willie is not well I hope he will be better when I hear from you again. It seems you think I do not care or write you by the tone of your letters. It also seems you have not received my letters at least you have not acknowledged them I have sent you three within the last six months containing fifty dollars each neither of them has been acknowledged. I have only received two within the last six months one contained the picture of little Jennie I think she is pretty and want to see her and all of you very much
