Dear Captain -
My sympathy has been strongly enlisted in behalf of a very poor old colored man named John Bone Father of David Cole dec'd Late of Co. "J" 15th U.S.C.T. He lives at Estill Springs. 70 miles from Nashville Tenn He and his wife have been in Nashville six weeks. They came here at the request of their attorney one Mr. Menifee who told them their money was ready for them and I presume he awaits your arrival. He has no money to take him home - & is really in a deplorable condition. I have no pecuniary interest
