Dear Sir
Inclosed please find Miss Shaws vouchers for services as Teacher Bureau RF & AL, for the month of Aug 1869. I made out and forwarded you her vouchers about 1st Inst. which, if you have received and are in proper form will render these worthless. Miss Shaws School is gradually increasing and is giving satisfaction
What about the school house? The K,K,K, are fully organized and are doing some damage. I took affidavits of the parties injured and ford: to Gen Canby, I hope he will take measures to prevent a repetition of such outrages. We dont need any reconstruction yet. 

Yours Truely
A K Foster
