Lieutenant

You will please make enquiries to the treatment of a colored child named "Malsey Ann," apprenticed by Lieut McQuigg to one Mr Carter of Whiteville. I wish to know if the terms of the Indenture have been complied with by said Carter and if the child is properly instructed fed and clothed.

I am Lieutenant
Very Respectfully
