Respectfully returned to Maj General O O. Howard Comr. The increase asked for by Mr Wolhaupter will make his Salary the same as that of his predecessor. When Mr Wolhaupter was appointed I recommended $75 because he was inexperienced  I thought it sufficient under the Circumstances, but in view of the arduous and responsible duties of the position and Mr Wolhaupters success in the management of the Orphan House, I think him deserving of the sum asked for ($100 00)
