Tells Ogden the story of a soldier named Brown. Brown is ailing and destitute, and unable to pay his rent. His wife has absconded after being brought under investigation in the death of her child from an overdose of laudanum. Says Brown remains ill with a huge debt owed to his landlady. Requests that Ogden send her money and try to get in touch with his mother, who lives in Brownstown, Maine.
