Asst. Supt. Freedman's Bureau
Princess Anne & Nansemond & Fort James

Sir.

I respectfully ask the restoration to me of my farm known as the "White House Farm" in Norfolk County.
I entered the rebel army in March 1862 and remained until the Surrender of Genl. R.E. Lee - I was a Private - I have taken the Amnesty Oath I never occupied the farm, having purchased it in 1860 on a speculation. My family removed to Pasquotank Co N.C. in 1861 where they have since resided - 

Very respectfully Your obt. Svt William S. Temple
