Major
I have the honor to ask if I would be justified in defending a Freedman before the Mayors Court where he has no money to fee counsel

I have been applied to repeatedly in such cases, and I now beg very respectfully for instructions in such cases

I have the honor to be Major
Very Respectfully
Your obedient servant.
