Phillip sent by his sister Mildred (Lightfoot) Nabb during 1799 is quoted below:
"My Dear Brother:
How different are my prospects from when I last wrote you. Then were they pleasing, but now gloomy
indeed, having lost the best and finest of men the 1st of July. My never to be forgotten Mr. Nabb, in death
after a violent separation of his knee, left me with my dear little girl (six weeks old) and three sons by a
former wife, destitute of a home or our own; though not, I hope, without a comfortable subsistence. The
two oldest boys I've put out to school; the youngest and my daughter at home with me at Mr. Coleman's
where I expect to stay until I can purchase a home, hopefully this winter. Then I shall take my old infirm
father [William Lightfoot] to live with me.
I trouble you, my good brother, with a lock of highly prized hair to have a locket made in the neatest
manner with my deceased husband's name on the back of it and a miniature for my girl. Have them done as
soon as you can and you will much oblige your affectionate sister.
/s/ Mildred Nabb"
