My dear friend ^Amy (Kirby) Post^
Amy Post
I have been requested to say to
you, that in case any persons are [going] to [the] Convention in Cleveland, via Buffalo, if they will make known their destination [at] the Office in Buffalo [at] the time of paying their fare thence to Cleveland (which will be [$]4) they will be furnished with a commutation [card] on which their name will be written in full, and which will have on the back of [it] a Certificate in blank to be filled [up] and signed by the presiding Officer of the Convention. The possess- ion of this, duly signed, will entitle the person whose name it may bear to return to Buffalo without further payment of [fare].
