This letter was written shortly after Sarah departed from Alabama. In it, Aurelia says that she hopes Sarah was able to avoid the storm that came about a week after she left, which appears to have destroyed much of her property. She describes several buildings as being unroofed and several people nearly dying when the roofs collapsed on them. She ends the letter by sending love to their brother and to Horatio.
