Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands,
FOR THE STATE OF MISSOURI AND ARKANSAS,
Little Rock, Ark., March 1 1866

General
You have my thanks for the word of caution you give in relation to Genl Thurston  I had a slight acquaintance with him when he was Inspector of the 16th Corps - and supposed he was a Gentleman and an efficient Officer -  

I have sent Col Williams to inquire into the matter & to note his official acts since he was appointed by me - and shall not hesitate to apply the remedy if one is required.

Very Respectfully
Your Obt Srvt
