Congdon writes that "I send the IIe Act in Disunion - the Ist went forward this morning. Together both pretty much exhaust the subject". He goes on to bemoan the delay "you might have it sooner if government would give this little abolition town another daily mail." He asks the recipient to please send him the "Knickerbocker for November. I have a little trifle in it - 'Will you dine with me'." Closing with the wishes "Buena notte!" Congdon signs himself with an abbreviated signature which one can only guess is "ChTC" and concludes with a postcript about the illegibility of another reporter's handwriting. The letter is mounted with glue from the verso onto a 8-1/4 inch high by 5-1/4 inch wide yellow paper. It is identified in an unknown hand on the verso: "C. T. Congdon / Oct 1860".

While working at the Tribune Congdon also published articles in "Vanity Fair" the "North American Review" and the "Knickerbocker Magazine". Congdon published recollections as well as poetry including "The Warning of War" in 1862.</p><p>RARE.</p> [Oct. 1860].
