James notes that he was on Provost duty in Lexington, which he enjoyed because little was expected of him and they got to sleep on mattresses. He further details that he and a friend went to Henry Clay's gravesite and took little pieces off of his monument as souvenirs. James says he will send Emma some of the pieces along with a seed from an unknown plant that he wishes her to plant. He goes on to describe Clay's monument in more detail and closes by asking Emma to relay messages to his family members and friends.
