Content
Holt asks for the Treasury officials' authorization so that Mrs. Rhoda Wickliffe of Bardstown, Kentucky, whose son-in-law is Captain Throckmorton of the 4th Artillery, may dispose of the products of her cotton plantation in Mississippi. The family, Holt begs, is well known to him as most loyal to the government and is most worthy of its protection.
