Samuel C. Smith, Robinson's attorney and associate in matters having to do especially with the Quindaro venture, wrote from Lawrence, Kansas Territory, about certain farm issues--presumably having to do with the governor's home and property in Douglas County--which he was managing during Robinson's absence (Robinson was in Washington, D.C.). Smith also wrote: "We formed another Board of Trade at Quindaro and shall probably have the Chindowan [newspaper] issued in two weeks."
