Abstract

Handwritten letter from Fred [Frederick] Wooster Owen, M.D., to Superintendent of Sailors' Snug Harbor, regarding an inquiry about the date of the death of Captain William W. Owen. Owen wants to verify the date of death, as he is unsure if the date he has is accurate. Received while Captain Thomas Melville was governor of Sailors’ Snug Harbor. [Cataloger's Note: The letter is dated February 29th, 1870, but that year was not a leap year so the date is incorrect.]
