Colonel,
There is a number of parties here that bought "Government Buildings" of some Tresry agent who was here last Summer or Autumn, and before the Buildings were removed the Post Com'dt (Col. Poyer) had them taken down and made into Barracks for the Garrison. there is considerable complaint made to me daily concerning this matter, and as I have no Personal or Official Knowledge of the above transactions or instructions from your Hd. Qrs. I would like to be informed what course to pursue. many of these temporary buildings have been destroyed or carried off during the last three or four Months.
Have I any thing to do with Sales by Tres'ry agents?

Verry Respectfully your obdt Servt
