Captain,
I have the honor to state that after the laws tedious delays, I have succeeded in having Richard Lawrence indicted for Bigamy. Please have the Clerk of Hanover county to certify under the County seal that Richard and Jane Lawrence were married in pursuance with act of the legislation of N.C. and send the same to Clerk of the Hastings Court of Richmond Va. Do this as soon as possible.
I am Captain
Very Respectfully
Your Obed't Serv't
