A short note outlining Thomas's fear that white democrats are trying to push him out of his position as Post Master of Bovina Mississippi, with the help of Pease. He requests that the Senator Bruce help him to keep his position until a vote can be decided to discover the wishes of the patrons. There is a small raised image of a woman's face and the word "Verona" underneath it in the top Left corner of the document.
