Sir,
From reduced circumstances & a difficulty of finding employment I would wish with me wife to take the benefit which Government allows to emigrate to the Cape of Good Hope, providing it is in my power to raise the deposit which is required and altho’ it may be small may inconvenience me much, the particulars I would be much obliged to be informed of through you
I am Sir
Your obed’t serv’t
