Transcription Notes:
Edited: completed, needs review
Hard to read
Papers overlap slightly so last word of first paper is covered
Commr = Commissioner
"King MlOhelleleer" made me laugh! Henry M Whittelsey is referenced in a lot of other letters.
BRFAL = Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen, & Abandoned Lands
