Washington D.C.
August 10th 1869

Genl H M Whittelsey
A.A.G. and C.Q.M.

General,

I would respectfully request that the [[strikethrough]] matt [[/strikethrough]] water pipes in the Lincoln Buildings be thoroughly examined and repaired.  Many of them are out of order, although as yet they have never been used.

I would also request that a door and a few shelves be put up in a room which will be used as a storeroom.

Very Resp'y
