George Clifton to Titus Scullin, (Care of Miss O’Connell, Lake House, Lafayette, Indiana, United States of America.), November 7, 1866

Governor Clifton to Mr. Scullin.

Sir: Prisoner 5,368, Charles Underwood O’Connell, desires me to communicate with you, and inform you that he is much troubted at not hearing from his family since he left the United States. He would feel more at ease were his anxiety respecting them relieved; and wants to hear whether all are alive and in good health.

He entreats his friends not to fret, or by any means trouble about him, but to remember him in their prayers.

He sends his love to his father, brother-in-law Mr. Scullin, his sisters Margaret, Anna, and Kate, his brothers John and Morgan, and hopes the latter two hoys study to improve their minds in their leisure hours. He is quite well.

I am, sir, your obedient servant,
