Annotation

[1]   AES, RPB. Lincoln's endorsement is written on a letter from John W. Forney, October 31, 1864, recommending that Thomas C. Curry of Danville, Pennsylvania, ``who has been drafted, should be permitted to enter as a Machinist in the Navy Yard.'' G. R. Wilson, master machinist at the Navy Yard, endorsed on November 2, ``We are in want of 1st. 2d & 3d Class Machinists and Pattern Makers''; and Welles forwarded the letter to Commodore John B. Montgomery who endorsed, ``Approved.''
