Dec. 3 66
Mr. H.C. Brockett

Dear Sir: In reply to your inquiries of Dec. 1 I will say, If you have the data for correcting the bills and can do so without seriously defacing them, it will be safest to do so; if not send them along as they are and run the risk of their rejection and further delay. The Q.M. here who pays these vouchers, says it will probably lead to the rejection of some of these bills, as Washington, if different prices are charged from the same permits. "What cost of transportation fees" and "transportation of myself" can not legitimately be made to include extra baggage ad libitum and hack hire.

However we must do the best we can with the bills you, such as you can correct math, do it and send all along.
Yours Truly
