Summary:
|
Letter sent to R. W. Thompson, Secretary of the Navy, on October 19, 1877 acknowledging the receipt of 20 copies of General Order No. 232 to be distributed through the Pensacola Navy Yard. The letter itself is frail, thin to the point of transparency, and has been eaten away at some points by rust due to the iron based ink used in penning the correspondence. The page number of the ledger this letter was copied into appears in the upper right. Parts of another letter are clearly visible through the paper itself as well. |
