Office AAQM. BRF & AL
Sub Dist. of Mobile
Mobile Ala. June 14th 1867

Respectfully returned to Bvt.
Maj. G.H. Tracy Sub Asst. Comm. BRF & AL. Mobile Ala.

In compliance with "Special Orders" alluded to, I ascertained the "nature and extent" of the repairs required by the Surgeon in Charge, and made an estimate of material and cost of labor necessary which I forwarded to Hd'Qrs Dist. of Ala. in order to obtain authority to purchase.
 
The estimate was returned from the Office of the Surgeon in Chief, Dist. of Ala. "Disapproved" it being entirely too large. 

Having thus been prohibited from purchacing the articles required, I referred the whole matter to the Act. Asst. Adjt. Gen. Dist. of Ala. May 23rd 1867 for instructions
