Robinson's retained copy of a letter written to the editor of the Newspaper "Intelligencer." Does not appear to have been published. With irrelevant docketing on the outer leaf concerning possibly Robinson's sister, initialed J.C.R. Some sentences and words have been struck in pencil. Pages 6, 8 and 13 have new salutations to the editor possibly intended as series of letters for publication. Mentions Dawson's defeat, in which he was captured, attempts to escape, quotation concerning the Sierra Madre on page 1, seeing Aztec ruins, Mexico in a state of revolution, imprisonment in the castle of Perote (near Mexico City) and his release on March 24, 1844.
