From Thomas Tabb Bolling (unpublished)
Paris Friday evening
Sir

I am sorry that I am obliged to trouble you in requesting you to be kind enough to give me a passport to England as there might some difficulties arise at Calais from not having one. Your compliance with this request will be an addition to the many obligations I am already under to you. I am Sir, with the utmost respect and esteem Your most obedient and very humble Servant
