Transcript | Stephen F. Austin letter San Felipe de Austin April 20, 1833 Rhoads Fisher lives at Matagorda at the mouth of Colorado. I saw him yesterday. His family are all well & I think he will do very well in this country and after we get regulated in our govt, a little better he will prosper I think fast, as I have no doubt all will who are industrious & attentive to business. Respectfully your friend and relative S. F. AUSTIN I think that politics in the U. S. are becoming rather more stormy than is consistent with good Govt, or even the safety of the union, tho, I hope it is all wind. Fifty years hence will be time enough to divide the union, & I do not believe it will adhere together longer than that. tfyT />■ 7- >/>y |
