Wet weather continuing and Cudjo and Morris "are in despair." Very poor cotton crops to come in Glynn County; however, old Jacob is favorable about rice and cane. Reviews births and deaths on the property over the past 9 months: 12 births, 3 deaths. Refers to "Indians" seen at the headwaters of the Buffalo [presumably river]. Discusses the Brunswick canal and railroads projects. As a footnote, reported hearing that "the Indians have possession of part of Ware County."</dc:description><dc:format>image/jp2</dc:format><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:rights>http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NoC-US/1.0/</dc:rights><dc:subject>Indians of North America--Georgia</dc:subject><dc:subject>Native Americans--Georgia</dc:subject><dc:subject>Rice trade</dc:subject><dc:subject>Cotton trade</dc:subject><dc:subject>Sugar trade</dc:subject><dc:title>Letter from John Couper to Roswell King, 1836</dc:title><dc:type>Text</dc:type></oai_dc:dc>
