Freedmen's Bureau Records: Annie E. Branham to Thomas P. Jackson, July 9, 1867

Summary:
Annie Branham's letter to Jackson alludes to a dispute with her servant, Joshua, over the amount owed to him in wages.


Mr Jackson

I am owing [unclear: Joshua] $24.90 balance on services rendered. He is owing me $20 for children's board and $3 for Table ware broken by self & children.

I did not send for you to come to my house to settle with Joshua, but told him that you said you would attend to it today & that you would be round after a while--about dinner time.

Yours Respectfully,

Annie E. Branham
