Elmore to Alvin P. Hovey, September 14, 1870

No. 4.

Mr. Elmore to Mr. A. P. Hovey.

My Dear General: The minister says he is sorry he can do nothing in the affair, and that the colonel need fear nothing, being with you.

I am not well of the throat; I can hardly speak.

Yours sincerely,

ELMORE.

General A. P. Hovey, &c., &c., &c.
