                RICHMOND, VIRGINIA,  Nov. 19, 1921.

Mr. C. K. Hill,
   Harriman, Tenn.,

Dear Mr. Hill:

   At a meeting of the Council yesterday afternoon,- the first
meeting since the receipt of your letter of Oct. 20, on the 23rd,
instant,- attention was called to the fact that neither one of
the papers carried the two endorsing signatures, which are
necessary before the papers can be considered, as you will see by
reference to the paragraph which I have marked upon each of the
papers.

   Otherwise, the papers are satisfactory, as you will see
from the approval of Mr. James Branch Cabell, our
genealogist; but I am returning them to you,- as per
instructions of the Council,- with the suggestion that you
secure the endorsement of the two members required,- two
members of the Society, in the State of Virginia being
preferable.

   Your check for forty dollars ($40.00), I am holding
subject to your instructions, pending your further action;
but I trust that we shall shortly hear from you again
returning the papers with these additional signatures,- and
I shall, of course, forward to you the requested
preliminary application, as soon as final favorable action
shall have been taken upon your papers.

   Much regretting that this delay should have developed,
believe me,

                                Sincerely yours,
                                Morgan P. Robinson
                                         Secretary,
                                Society of Colonial Wars,
                                in the State of Virginia.
