Washington, April 8th
My dear Mother,
Father
Birth: 1801-05-16 Death: 1872-10-10
will
appoint Charles Warden
Birth: 1833-07-10 Death: 1883-08-30
to a
Clerkship in the State Department
worth $1200 a year, if he will
accept it.
But at the same time, he
says that a salary of $800
in Detroit will go quite as
far, if not farther than one of
$1200 here.
Will you tell the Wardens
Birth: 1835-06 Death: 1902-08-29
and let Charles write whether
he accepts or not?
Affectionately your son
Frederick
