| Dear Sir, |
| I am almost entirely out of Oil for my
lamps, both Kerosene & Lamp Oil & if you do not send me some,
we will be in the dark, as no Kerosene can be had here for any
price, Good Lard Oil sells for $250 a Galln. I have enough
to last me yet about 3 nights of each kind. |
| Very truly |
| T. Daniel |
| {Station Agent in Petersburg for
the Richmond & Petersburg RR} |
