Dear Sir, 

     I have the honor to state that 
my old friend and school mate Mr. Stone of 
Lincoln County stated to me that a flag 
was to be sent in a few days to Miss Maggie 
March in charge of the female Academy near 
Lynchburg.  I am well acquainted with both 
Mr. Stone and Miss March.  I have some 
business to transact for myself in that vicinity 
and have an escort ready to go with me, and 
as I preached the gospel to them once in that 
country and they heeded me not, but have 
since been converted by your more practical 
system of reclaiming the _______.  I do most 
respectfully ask the privelige of bearing the 
Old Stars and Stripes and presenting the  
same to the school.  It is Mr. Stones wish 
that I should do so. 


     I have the honor Genl to be

          with profound respect 

                Your Obt. Servt. 

                        George W. Davidson
 
                             Mil. Store Keeper 

                         And Q. M. Clerk 


 
P.S.  On Thursday 16 ____ I wish to go to Lynchburg.
