In reply to your letter dated Nov 18 1868 I have the honor to inform you that there is no record of the transfer of William Smidick's account, in the office of the Freedmen's Savings and Trust Co. at this place, but the Cashier informs me that all the Books and Records of the Office were destroyed in the fire which occurred here in 1866, and that he has written to Wilmington and the Central Office at Washington D.C. on the subject. 

Very Respectfully
Your Obt. Servant
