Footnotes
The date range is conjectured from the printed stationery, which is identical in wording to a type that CD used from November 1874; however, it is not his usual stationery, and presumably belonged to a friend or relation in the village. Neither the recipient nor the enclosure has been identified.
Summary
Asks that enclosed letter be posted for him.
