10 September 1863
Friedrick, Wartmann, fl. 1863
Autograph letter signed
Title: to Sarah Ogden
Thanks Ogden for sending his son's personal belongings to Wisconsin, and for promising to return his body. Mentions that families making this request usually do not receive the correct body. States, "we place every confidence in you, Madame! That you will certainly be informed and know which the grave of my son is, that our mind may not be grieved more by deception." Enclosed thirty dollars in the letter (not included), for the purchase of an air-tight coffin. In a postscript, asks that she responds to his letter upon its arrival.
