House Representatives,
Montgomery, Ala., August 7th 1868

Gen. O.L. Shepherd
Sir
I have received several letters from my Constituents stating that the Freedmans Bureau at Claiborne was not now in opperation, and, as it is highly important that it should go on, they request me to ask you to fill the office at once and request that Nathan Fiebleman be appointed to that office if it be your pleasure to do so.
Very Respectfully
Your Obt Servt
