| Dear Friend, |
| |
| Mr Harrison informs me that he
has made arrangements for getting off his effects in Trains now here and
will not need any more. |
| I have seen several parties
here that wish to get off freight, and as I am anxious to get my
furniture to Goldsboro. I think we can load 8 or 10 cars. Please do me
the favor to send your train with the above number of cars, and I will
pay the bill. |
| All I have in the world
outside the Yankee lines, is here and I want to save it, if possible. |
| Please let me know by return
mail when to look for the train, that I may be all ready. |
| Your friend truly |
| H. T. Hancock |
