To Gov Yates,
Sir This will be handed you by Mr. John Drake of Bethel Morgan County. Mr D. wishes to obtain your influence to get released his brother in law in Indianapolis. He will explain to you how he came to be taken here. I have known Mr. Drake for the last Thirteen years and take pleasure in certifying to his moral & upright character & conduct as a citizen & loyal man.
Respectfully
Horace Bancroft
