Passport of Emily West

Back to "Emily West "

Capitol, Thursday Morning

To the Hon. Dr. Irion

The bearer of this-Emily D. West has
been since my first acquaintance with her, in April of
--36 a free woman-she Emigrated to this Country with
Col. Ja's Morgan from the state of N. York in september
of 35 and is now anxious to return and wishes
a passport-I believe myself, that she is entitled
to one and has requested me to give her this
note to you.

Your Obd't Serv't

I.N. Moreland

Her free papers were
Lost at San Jacinto as I am
Informed and believe in April of -36
