Col M. C. Garber
Chief Quartermaster 
Bu RF and A.L

Colonel
I have the honor to respond to your voucher No. 20 for Postage delivered by me on Public service. A duplicate as you requested. I have the honor to refer you to Paragraphs one and 126a [[Baines?]] Army Regulations. Postage is paid on the request of the officer who has disbursed the money, and does not require the approval of any other officer. I believe I am correct in thinking that it is paid by the Quartermaster Department from the General Fund. If you decline to pay this account will you please return it to me with an endorsement to that effect in order that I may forward it to the Quarter
