Hello Cagles, The following letter was written to David Cagle by his brother Benjamin, the contents mostly concern their father's will. The letter was found in "Cagle People", by Martin Luther Burchinal. Ami Wolf
Brothers and Sisters and Families:
I write these few lines to you to let you know that we are all well at this time but has been very sickly this fall. We lost one of the family this fall he was about two years old a black boy. The above is sufficient[this letter was enclosed with a letter written by his mother]for you to read and now I come to write to you how Father's concerns stands. He left one horse, two cows, and all household furniture to[sic] Mother and all the rest to be equally divided except twenty dollars over and above to Robert and I and George. I expect to be ready by next October to make settlement with the Legatees and I should be glad that you could come out then as the amount of the sale was only one hundred fifty one or two dollars. I understand that Jacob Hagler and Elizabeth is a coming out here this winter but I want them to come next fall as he wrote to send him word whether or not there was any creter left for him. No there is none but one and that is left to mother.
So no more at present but remain your affectionate brother until death.
Benjamin Cagle.
To Mr. David Cagle, State of Georgia Henry County and Elizabeth Hagler.
