Tarbell is writing Senator Bruce on behalf of a Miss Wright who he has taken an interest in helping. Miss Wright works for Mr Cormick and has been promised an appointment in the treasury department. Cormick however has only put her on the temporary rolls, with a promise to be put on permanent rolls when he is about to resign. She borrowed money to get home since her family could not send her any, and now is penniless and needs help. Tarbell is asking the Senator to please help Miss Wright however possible.
