Gov. Robinson
Dear Sir,
Should Major Moreau be broken by court martial the appointment of my friend Geo. Womack in his place would greatly gratify me. I know Mr Womack well and know him to be a high toned gentleman and that he would make a good officer. He aided me in raising my old fraction of a Regiment and would have been the Lt. Colonel [but] the consolidation prevented it. Thinking the good of the good of the State required it he cherfully gave way. Take his claim into consideration and if you can commission him you would confer a great favor upon
Yours truly
Richard T. Jacob.
