Norfolk July 1, 1865 Col. Brown Dear sir I have been hoping to see you here this week. I leave for the North this afternoon. I leave all the furniture at the Hipkins house in good condition. I must necessarily leave it in the care of Mrs Hipkins subject to your order and disposal. I think that she will take good care of it, she has seen hard times, has seven children, of the F.F.V stamp, on her hands, and no means of support. I think I would indulge her a little Mrs W. sends her gratitude to you for the favor of a pleasant ride to Richmond and the many other favors you have shown us since we have been in Norfolk I was thankful that you secured your desired appointment, but I think it will be the hardest duty of this war. Please remember us all to Mrs. B & the boys to the boy. I am yours in haste (as you see) W.R. Webster
