My dear Capt. Standish
I owe you my best thanks for your kind & friendly attention to my request of granting an exchange of one of the horses, which from your department you were formerly so good to place at my disposal.1
I shall gratefully send on Tuesday next for the animal selected and return the one, now no longer needed.
With much gratitude & attachment, I remain, my dear Capt. Standish,
yours very truly
Ferd. Mueller.
M to F. Standish, 4 December 1862 (in this edition as 62-12-04a).
