Dear
Bro-
Your
letter
has
just
been
received
.
Mr
.
Cockrill
had
better
purchase
the
land
of
Mr
.
Grainer
,
one
acre
if he
can
, and the
two
if he
can
no
better-We
will
advance
the
one
hundred
when
needed
, and the
two
if
it
cannot
be
arranged
in any
other
way
.
So
instruct
Mr
.
Cockrill
to
close
up
the
bargain
and
put
up
the
house
at
once
.
I
solicited
an
appropriation
of
125.00
for
flues
[sic]
and
stones
at
Murfreesboro
.
I
trust
that
you
will
see
from the
Bureau
that
amount
for the
colored
people
, for
2
do
not
see
how they
can
get
along
without
it-
Please
answer-
Respectfully
yours
,
R.S
.
