Sir
Your note of the 28th inst, is at hand.
It is true, that I have decided, that the claimants of stock on the Bragg place, were entitled to the Stock, but at the Same time, I granted to Gen Bragg an appeal to Gen Swayne, just as I had on a former occasion, granted the Claimants an appeal
The Appeal to which I allude, was sent off by mail, this day week and as yet, I have not heard from it
There will be no need of assistance I have told the Claimants, to wait, and as soon as I could hear from Gen Swayne, I would notify them, & act in accordance with the instructions I may receive.
