Very good 1865 letter signed with an “X” mark by three former slaves, asking to be emancipated now from service in the U.S. Navy during the Civil War. Letter dated 22 June 1865 reads in full, “U.S.S. New ‘Era’ / Mound City Ills / June 22nd 1865 / Sir, There are three of us attached to this vessel who have been in the Navy from one year to eighteen months over the time for which we understood we were shipped.

Will you please allow us to be discharged so that we can see our wives and families from whom we have been some time separated.
