Burr, 5th November 1810: Has a carriage accident that badly injures his foot, such that he’s in constant pain, can't get a shoe on for about a month, and can't really walk anywhere.
Burr, 8th November 1810: After a misunderstanding with money changing, describes himself as "absolutely sans sous"

Burr to Theodosia, 10th November 1810: "The only consolation which I can offer you for this disappointment is, that my health continues unimpaired, and that I have the present means of support. A little addition to those means would not be inconvenient."

Oh, Burr.

(In the same letter, he mentions how much he wishes he had news of Luther Martin, and how fond he is of him. This is the only time he mentions Martin in his letters, and it's a week or two after his journal mentions a report that Martin was snide about him in court. For someone so apparently open you really have to do some cross-referencing and thinking to get anywhere near what's going on Burr's brain.)
