 File — Box: 3, Folder: 3
Identifier: 3

Scope and Contents

All the correspondence in this folder were written while Col. Caperton took an extended stay at the Phoenix Hotel, Lexington, KY. Although it is difficult to read Col. Caperton's script, it can be assumed by the numerous Doctor's appointments that are mentioned that Caperton was receiving treatment for a health issue. Most letters are addressed to "Darling", which refers to Jamie Caperton, however, the content varies from status reports on his health to general advice about a variety of family and personal matters.
