Colonel:

Permit me to introduce G. H. C. Rowe Esq. of Fredericksburg a lawyer & gentleman of high standing there whose statements will deserve attention.  I know something of the case which he presents as King applied to me long ago for his sawmill.  When he found it and was likely to regain possession, the holder who had doubtless intended to keep it, turned it over to your Bureau.  The man Baggott is, I believe, unworthy of confidence.

Truly Yours
