Richmond March 19

Gen Brown

Dear sir 
Pray excuse my trespassing on your valuable time but having heard that you sometimes employ copyists I write to ask you for writing I have only to plead my necessities for making the request; I am a widow with three small children entirely dependent on my exertions for a support. Hoping it will be in your power to minister to the fatherless and the widows in their affliction; I subscribe myself 
Yours Respectfully
L. Chinn.
