Major:
I have the honor to report that I have given Transportation Order No. 44 to Mary A. Wood and A.E. Foster, ordering transportation for them, with their four children, from Selma, Ala. to Meridian, Miss.
Both of the parties are dependent on the U.S. Government for support and have been drawing rations from this Office for several months.
They have friends in Miss. who will assist to support them.
Very Respectfully
Your Obdt. Svt.
