My dear Son
The application
of which the enclosed
is a copy was sent
to the State Department–
I suppose it should
have gone to the
War Department–
Mr Barker
Unknown
is now here and asks the
favour of learning
whether the original
document reached
its proper destination–
I will tell you
some other time
why I am interested
in his success–
He is intelligent
& modest– I think
about the age
40–
A large man I
should judge in
perfect health–
The latter I consider
important in the
discharge of active
duties–
God bless you
Mother–
