Col O.D Kinsman
Sub Asst Comm'r &c
Montgomery Ala.

Col.
I have the honor to report that I have investigated the complaint of L M Cole of Fredonia Ala, against the Tax Assessor of Chambers Co; and found his statement substantially true. I also had several other complaints of the same character in the same neighborhood. I was unable to see the Tax Collector in person, but wrote him a note, informing him that double taxing in such cases as those reported would not be tolerated.

Very Respectfully
Your obt servt
