“ The difficulty of procuring the addresses of officers renders it necessary that those who wish to see the memoirs of their services free from those errors to which a work of this description must necessarily be subject in the hands of an unassisted individual embracing, as it does, the relation of such a multitude of details, should afford me the means of communication with them, by furnishing me with their address. It is indispensably necessary that all communications be forwarded free of postage or other expense. ”
