SC-0016-I-D-1-B-031Abstract
Handwritten letter from Edward Kelly, inmate of Sailors' Snug Harbor, to Captain Gustavus D. S. Trask, asking to be relieved of his duties in the reading room, as he has friends in the city that wish him to visit them frequently enough that he can't fulfill his duties. A note in red, possibly in Trask's handwriting, under the letter's text states that Kelly was absent on November 7 without giving notice and left on the 10th without having a replacement.
