My present purpose is to beg for half an hours conversation with You. I am at present, and shall be for tomorrow, totally unknown in the Hotel, a line directed for me, or any message to the Gentn who arrivd this night and lodges in the Room No 10 will be duly attended to.

I am with Great Respect Sir Your very Ob Servt
