Mobile January 30 1866 Colonel I arrived safely at this great center of standing Sunday noon.-yesterday I was not able to accomplish much with the collector. He being engaged with Mr. Chandler Asst. Sec. Treasury - The fates were against Montague and he was removed to make room for a more hungry set The office is left in loss of Mr Gormsby - Cotton Agent until the President makes a new appointment. I think how the change will be for the better so far as our Bureau is concerned. I advertised today, a lot of property for sale which I got from Capt. Boyd & some from Col Montague. I will keep you posted on our developments occur. I hope you may find it best to come down this week. Yours, Very Truly Thos. J. Kerr Capt & A Q M
