J L Edwards Esq
Sir I am requested by Mr Hurd to inform you that if it were possible for him to receive his pension money in Louisville instead of Lexington it would be a great ac- commodation to him as he is very old and infirm and the journey to Lexington would be a severe undertaking for him. If any alteration could be made by you so that he could draw his money in Louisville you would confer a favor on me and be a great accommodation to an old revolutionary soldier who fought and bled for your and my indepen- dence
I am Sir
Yours very Respectfully George Waterman Post Master
