In these two letters written to the otherwise unidentified "Cox," Towne says there is opportunity for investing in Victoria, British Columbia, where Towne is currently stationed. He reports that real estate has doubled since his arrival. "Cox" appears to be in San Francisco, and has apparently access to goods for shipment to Towne. This manuscript consists of two letters, 1 and 2, dated 1858, July 27 and July 30 respectively.
