Greenboro', Ala. 14th Dec. 1866.
Maj. Gen. W. Swayne

General -
Having been elected a Justice of the Peace in the County of Greene, and duly qualified, I beg leave hereby to signify my acceptance of the agency of the Freedman's Bureau; and would feel greatly obliged for copies of the Bureau Regulations for my guidance
I have been unable to obtain copies of but few of them, and they only through the newspapers, which I apprehend do not in every instance reproduce them correctly.
Very Respectfully
Joshua J. Garrett, J.P.
