Office Sub Com Freedmen
Aberdeen, Miss Oct 16th

Col R S Donalson

Col
Sickness among the Freedmen here is daily increasing and I think it absolutely necessary that we should have a surgeon

Dr Morrow of 13th Ind Cav will very willingly accept a detail— Dr. J L Tindall of whom I wrote you, will do us as good service perhaps as any man you could send us

Transcription Notes:
("Donalson" a misspelling of "Donaldson") Most likely "Doctor F Morrow" of 13th Indiana Cavalry per entry here: https://www.nps.gov/civilwar/search-soldiers-detail.htm?soldierId=4E1FE1BC-DC7A-DF11-BF36-B8AC6F5D926A -- Beth
