Wharton to Archer, November 29, 1835, in Brown, History of Texas, I, 428. There is some conflict as to the date of this letter. It was printed in an undated circular as an enclosure in a letter from Archer to the editors of the Telegraph and Texas Register and in another circular, likewise undated, as an enclosure in a letter from Archer to the editor of the Texas Republican (both in Austin Papers). In the first case it is dated November 26, and in the second November 28.
