Dear Gov —
I have Just returned from a trip up Red River in La, and while in Shreveport was requested by members of the Bar of that place, to ask of you the appointment of a commissioner of Deeds for Kentucky in that place. The need of a Commissioner at that place is very much felt. — I had some difficulty in the want of one myself.
They recommended the name of Samuel Wells Esq as a Suitable person. —
Please attend to this and very much oblige, the legal fraternity of North Western La & your obedient Servant. —
Gov Thos E. Bramlett. —
Comr of Deeds
