Office Superintendent, District of Selma
Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands,
Selma, Ala. January 7th 1867

Major Gen Wager Swayne
Montgomery Ala.

General - Your letter of the 28th of Dec last by the hand of Mrs. Hood was received and as far as posible its suggestions have been complied with.

Mr. Miller received your letter and saw Genl Harder on Saturday last I think. No attention was paid to the ladies by the families of Col Moore of Mr. Miller.

The body was exhumed on Saturday - A plain bag bound with zinc was used instead of a metalic case - The vouchers will be sent you.

Mrs. Hood and daughter with the remains in charge, left here this morning they were in quite good health and through your favor I have no doubt will get along with but little trouble
