Lieutenant- I forward herewith the monthly papers for December 1866.  In the Report of monies received I report the receipt of Four Hundred (400) Dollars as the proceeds of the sale of houses on the Vogelin Estate sold upon verbal order through Col. Beecher Disb. Officer.  I most respectfully ask than an order may be issued upon me to sell &c.

In the Estimate for January 1867 you will notice an item of One Hundred and Fifty (150) Dollars for prosecuting complaints in the Bureau.  I think this amt. necessary for use here, and I trust that the Estimate may be approved
