Title: Jane Brevard Darby scrapbook: Letter, August 10, 1872, Octavia Walton Le Vert, Augusta, Georgia, to Ellen Call Long, 4 pp., regarding the serious illness of her daughter following childbirth and a request from Mrs. Long: "She named her child George Walton, for my beloved Papa and for my grand father George Walton one of the signers of the Declaration of Independance from Georgia. . . I am truly sorry sweet friend, that I shall not be enabled to give you any 'items' of the early days of Anglo Saxon rule in Pensacola. My dear Papa, was Lieutenant Governor, when Gen. Jackson and his wife were there, and then Governor after Gen. Jackson left. . . I was not yet nine years old when we went to Pensacola, so my remembrances are very indistinct . . . Dr. Bronough died in my Father's house, I have often heard Mamma and Papa say. But I do not remember him at all. . ."
