Strawberry Hill
April 18th 55

Dear Andrew

I write for the purpose
of letting you know that I have a
very unruly negro girl of whom I am
anxious to dispose of as soon as
possible and supply her place.
Will you be so good as look out for
me a breeding negro woman under
twenty years of age? Also a young acting
negro man. If you cannot meet with
the slaves aforesaid I will be willing
to purchase a young or middle aged
negro man with his wife and chil
dren. I shall be glad to hear from
you immediately as the negro of
whom I wish to dispose is a ver
dangerous character

yours truly
G. B. Wallace
