Cullum, 1861 May 20 discussing William Terrill's difficult decision to remain with the Union forces rather than to return to his native Virginia and fight for the Confederate States of America. Enclosed, Bache forwards a copy of a letter to Terrill from his father in which Mr. Terrill bemoans his son's actions and labels him a traitor. The last item in the collection is a letter dated, 1851 December 15, Washington, D.C. discussing appropriated funds for an experiment.
