Gen’l Marston—
                                    Sir: I
desire to learn from you if the privilege of taking the oath of allegiance to the US Government, as defined in President Lincoln’s late proclamation, would be extended to me.
            I am anxious to return to my friends in the North and an early answer will much oblige.
 
                                                                                    Yours Truly
                                                                                    W.W. Halley.
