Captain
I beg leave to call your attention to the fact that during 
the month of May last, I ordered one. C.C. Baldwin a citizen of this county to pay to a Freedman whom Baldwin had employed the sum of seven dollars ($7)

Baldwin stated to the Freedman that he had no money with him just at that time but said he would give the Freedman his due Bill for the amt ($7)  This the Freedman agreed to 
and Baldwin wrote him a "due bill" payable on demand and gave it to him, this was early during the month of May.

The Freedman informs me that he has called on Baldwin several times for the amt
