A pass permitting Captain Daniel Klein, 6th Connecticut Volunteer Infantry to pass "the intrenchments" until "April 30th 1863." The pass was granted by the order of Brigadier General Alfred Howe Terry (1827-1890), who signed the pass along with the 1st Lieutenant and Acting Aide-de-Camp.

Rachendson [?], a trader, and friends "to visit 'St. Helena Island' until July 15th. 1863." The pass was granted by the order of Colonel John L.

    We had a wonderful time in New York during the October 2013 Historical Manuscripts auction that featured my mother’s papers collected during her tenure as Martin Luther King, Jr.’s secretary. In fact, the entire experience from beginning to end has been a pleasure.
