EDGAR ALLAN POE TO CHARLES HENRY MARSHALL — MAY 1848

 

Fordham N. Y. May 48

Dr Sir,

Learning from Doctor Freeman that he is an applicant for the post of Surgeon on board the Steam-Packet “United States,” I have great pleasure in mentioning that he has attended my family for the last two years, and that I believe him in all respects qualified for the office which he seeks.

Very Respy
Yr. Ob. st
Edgar A. Poe.

To Chas. H. Marshall Esqr
