Montgomery, Alabama.
Oct. 8 1868.

Major General O. O. Howard
Commissioner B. R. F. & A. L.
Washington, D.C.

General,

When you were here you directed me to appoint C. S. Weirman as a clerk at Mobile temporarily, or until another could be procured. I did so, and he has been on duty since Sept. 14" inclusive. A formal appointment I suppose is necessary, and I would therefore ask that it may be made.

Very Respectfully,
Edwin Beecher
Asst. Comr. for Ala.
