Written by Butler in retirement. Reference de Villers letter of 29 December 1807. Expresses sympathy for the illness of Mrs. de Villers. Wishes them to live for many years more, but says they probably need a better climate than the one found in Savannah. Wants de Villers to dispose of the rice for the most it will bring and to transmit the net proceeds to his daughter Frances. Wants him to lose no time doing this. Hopes to see him and Judge Jones at Hampton. Postscript asks if he has heard from Mr. Seagrove?
