Letters congratulate Eustis on his election to Congress and reiterate some of Vacher's own experiences during and after the American Revolution: his injuries at White Plains, the capture of Burgoyne, and the treatment of veterans.
Letters also contain political and philosophical musings, some about the poetry of Joel Barlow, some about his son and about the future of America.
Both include a poem in French, Vacher's native language, concerning the Revolution.
Vacher, born Jean Francois, was a physician during the war, having graduated from the College of Chirurgie de Montpellier in 1769.
Vacher was an original member of the New York State Society of the Cincinnati.
