I have the honor to request instructions in reference to giving transportation to Destitute Citizens living in Mobile whose homes are at a distance -- I have several cases where it is Evident that transportation should be given but as there was no instructions in reference to the matter turned over to me by Mr. Harmount  I have
declined to act in the matter untill I could get definite instructions from your Hd Qrs
Respectfully
Your Obdt Sevt
