In this letter to his father, Medorem Crawford laments the war with the Cayuse Indians, which he describes as "truly a death blow to Oregon for several years unless the U.S. Govt. comes this summer & pays the expenses of the war." He does not think the provisional government of the territory will be able to continue much longer, and describes the effects on the people settled there. He also relates news of his own business and family.
