Grant, eldest son of Ulysses S. Grant, writes to Llewellyn, a lawyer. Assures Llewelyn of the authenticity of a U.S. Grant letter (refer to GLC04907.02). Of the order, Frederick writes "In this order is directed one of the movements, which brought about the capture of Petersburg, Va, in 1865, referred to in Chapter LXIV p.p. 436-453. Voll II, Personal Memoirs of U.S. Grant." Appreciates Llewellyn's decision to place the letter in the care of an unspecified historical society. Accompanied by two collateral maps; one depicts the Siege of Petersburg 31 March- 3 April 1865, and the other depicts the Siege 25 March- 9 April 1865. Maps appear to have been torn from a book.
