I have recd a letter from a friend of mine, Col. M. Cooke of Norfolk, from which I send you the following extract.
"Will you do me the favor to call at the Pension Office & examine the papers used in the prosecution of the pension claim of the late Mrs. Eliza Sugg, widow of Fred. Warneck; if among them be any evidence of the time or place of Warneck's death, please send me a copy of it - indeed if the papers be not very voluminous, I would be pleased to have copies of all of them. It would be a very great convenience to me to have them reach Norfolk by Sunday morning mail at furthest, as I was sure then receiving at Prince Anne Court. Warneck was a Col. or Lt. Col. in the Virginia State Line of the Revolution!"
As I will not have leisure to call at the Pension Office within ten or three days, I respectfully request that the copies indicated in the above extract, may be sent to me.
