General.

I have received notice through Genl. Griggs that the Secy. of War had made (Dec 24) a requisition on the Secty. of the Interior for $100000 to be placed in my hands. Will you please to ask the Dept. to instruct the Asst. Treas. in Nw. Orleans to furnish me with gold. The bulk of Silver renders is unsafe for me to transport and keep. and the Amount to be paid to the Families of Indians would ^[[in silver]] be too bulky for safety. Very Respectfully. Your Obt-.Servt.
