Popelston for a midshipman's warrant. The letter to Gales and Seaton pertains to a subscription to the NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER. To Magnum and Graham, Iredell writes in support of James H. Brazier for appointment as midshipman, and requests that they forward his letter to Secretary of the Navy, Abel P. Upshur. On the same page, Magnum and Graham write a note of transmittal to Upshur, stating that they concur heartily with Iredell's recommendation.
