Transcript | Gentlemen, As I understand you have had a long and intimate connection with the Southern States, I take leave to apply to you for information on the following matter. I have received in remittance from Georgia a quantity of the notes of the late Confederate States. They appear to be payable on demand, two years after the conclusion of a definitive treaty of peace between the Confederate & the United States. What I wish to know is, whether it is practicable to convert them at present into English money, and by what means, or if you are unable to give me this information, whether you can refer me to any agent or other party connected with the late Confederate States, who can give me definite information on this subject. Trusting you will give me an early reply and excuse the trouble I am giving you. I am very truly W. J. C. A. Fraser Trenholm & Co. Liverpool. |
