Jackson, Tennessee, Sept 10, 1843. Dear Sir, — My friendship for you, and nothing else, has prevailed on me, to enclose you the letter of A. L. Wilmer, Esquire. — But I much fear, that in doing it, I have violated somewhat the rules that govern correspondents in such matters. Believing, however, that your great good sense, will but protect my honor in this transaction, I remain with affectionate regard, Yours Ever, Jno. Tomlin. Edgar A. Poe, Esquire. P. S. Return Wilmer’s letter.
