Dadeville Ala
Tallapoosa County
June 26th 1866

Maj Genl. Swayne
Montgomery Ala

Dear Sir,

I am in receipt of an order from your office on the Commissary of Montgomery for Thirteen Thousand and five hundred rations for the distressed of this county.  Will you please have the kindness to inform whether or not the Commissaries have arrived in Montgomery, or if we can have the requisition filled by coming to Montgomery.  The order is for the month of June.  There is great destitution in our county and much suffering. 

A little aid to help us secure our crops is very important and would do an incalculable amount of good.

Very respectfully
Yr obt svt
Wm Paige
County Agent
