James W Tate Esq ass^t Sec 3

Dear Sir

Your favour of 30^th ult came to hand, I was just on the point of mailing a letter to you enclosing the five dollars amount of fees required by the State Statute to renew my commission, when the telegram informed us that the legal authorities had been compelled to abandon the capitol to the Confederate forces. Under these circumstances I withheld the letter and now write to ask whether I shall forward to you at Louisville. As soon as your answer is received the money will be forwarded

Yours truly
Robert C. Wright
