Dear Father
We hear by the last
mail that Major Rhett
Birth: 1821-08-02 Death: 1878-07-28
Paymaster USA Stationed at El Paso New Mexico
has resigned his commission in the
Army.
I hope that you have taken such
measures that I may obtain this
vacancy, or if it has not been
filled will do so.
My Company has been ordered
from this Post to Albuquerque
on the Rio Grande.
Your Affectionate Son
Augustus
