Personally appeared in open court Carl Tellgemann
and made application to be admitted a citizen of the
United States of America, and in support of his said
application proved by Charles Herbst and Fritz
Tegener both citizens of this state, that he has
resided within the limits and jurisdiction of the United
States of America for more than five years last past
and the last year thereof within this State that during
that time he has behaved as a man of good moral character
attached to the principle of the Constitution, and well
disposed to the good order and happiness of the same,
Carl Tellgemann having shown to the satisfaction of this
Court that he has faithfully complied with the
naturalization law of the United States Congress and is
entitled to the benefits of the same, and he also
having made oath that he will support the Constitution
of the United States of America, and having entirely
renounced and abjured (?) all allegiance and fidellity
to every foreign Prince, potentate, State or sovreignty
whatever, and particularly the Kingdom of Brunswick of
whom before he was a subject.
It is therefore ordered that the said Carl Tellgemann
be and he is hereby admitted a citizen of the United
States of America, and that letters of citizenship issue
accordingly.
