William L. Ransom to Richard Yates

Litchfield, Connecticut,

June 17th 1864

Hon Richard Yates

Dear Sir:

I have been for some time engaged in procuring a Volume of Autograph Letters from the Statesmen and distinguished men of our country, and I desire a word or so from you.

Permit me, therefore, to solicit of you the favor of a single line, or a sentiment, as an addition to my collection, with the assurance that the same will afford me much pleasure.

I trust that I have not exceeded the bounds pf propriety in my request.

Waiting your kindness,

I am,

Yours Very Respectfully,

Wm L. Ransom
