Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands, 
Head Quarters 2nd Sub-District, Virginia, 
Petersburg, July 20th, 1868

Brevet Brig. Gen'l. O. Brown.
Assistant Commissioner
Richmond, VA.

General, 

I have the honor to ask for an appointment as Bureau Agent for Webster Llufrio of this city. Mr. Llufrio has warmly espoused the Republican cause, and has been discharged from employment therefor. He is the young man first appointed as Collector of Taxes of this city but was defrauded of the office in attempting to obtain security. 

He is a strictly temperate, intelligent and deserving young man; and I know of no one more entitled to consideration from the Government than he. He has been for several years a resident of this city. 

Very Respectfully, 
Your Obt. Servant,
J.R. Stone
Sub Asst. Commr.
