The letter written to his father, livening in Montgomery Country, and are about his journey to the school by way of stagecoach and his new address. In the letter he also writes about the death of his dear German friend, Smith, "A teacher came here this morning and he told me that they found (Smith the name of the German peddler) somewhere near Morristown, had his throat cut and is presumed someone murdered him". Of the thirteen compositions, Kurtz writes about, "Slavery is one of the greatest evils now in existence," and goes on to explain his disdain for their masters. He also writes about his education, farming and agriculture, nature, and the dangers of alcohol, "Thousands are yearly buried to an untimely grave merely caused by ardent spirits".
