[[preprinted]] 71 [[/preprinted]] June 24th Sir: I have the honor to ask for instructions as to the enclosed application from the Supt. of Franklin Co. N.C. Dr. Green of Franklinton & Dr. Wilson of Warrenton have both offered to attend to destitute persons in their vicinity provided that medicines can be furnished them.
