Bvt Brig Gnl John Eaton USV.
Asst Commissioner

Sir
I respectfully request that permission be granted to move the Building known as Surqeon's Quarters at Augur Genl Hospital, size about 60 x 25 feet, to Falls Church, about four miles. There to be used as a School Room, Church and Teachers Quarters.

Also that permission be granted to move one of the Barracks known as the Bks of the 14th Rgt V.R.C. at Augur Genl Hospital, size about 18 x 90 ft. to Halls Hill, there to be used as a Church, School & Teachers Quarters.

At both of the places the Colored people have bought land for the Buildings & promise to move & reerect them at their own expense.

Transcription Notes:
Is USV correct? Looks like USC, but I'm unsure. -- Beth I think so..US Volunteers.
