The first is a letter from Robert and Maley Bayley to their son informing him of their troubles, including the loss of their cattle and their subsequent inability to pay for bread until the corn crop becomes ready to sell.

The third letter is from John Bayley to his nephew Jacob Bailey asking how he likes being a soldier.
