Smith Orrin. Esq.
Wake Co.

Henry Smith complained that Orrin Smith abused and assaulted him - knocked him down injuring his head. The case was referred to the Civil Authorities. The man (Orrin Smith) was arrested by the Sheriff, and before the trial the parties settled the matter. According to Henry's statements Orrin Smith had always been his friend, and had helped him. Henry says he gave provocation for the assault upon him, and used very bad language, and threatened Mr Smith.
Smith settled by allowing Henry to go on with his crops Is to let him have a Horse to furnish feed for the horse and Henry is to pay it out of his crop allowing the price he has now to pay for corn. If the horse is abused or ill treated  Smith has the right to take him away. Henry on his part agrees that Mr Smith shall have the services of his boy for the use of the Horse. The case was dismissed upon the above settlement  The parties mutually satisfied.

Chur Col Jacob F.

Colonel,
I have the honor to apply for transportation for Lena Vaugh col aged 8 years and James Henry  Vaugh aged 7 years, from Raleigh N.C. to Cincinnatti Ohio. These children are without any known relatives.  Their Father and Mother are both dead. Mr A.M. Garoutte of Cincinnatti has agreed to take the children and do all that is necessary for them until they become of age, unless theys provided for they must be a charge upon the Bureau. From my personal knowledge of those who are interested in these children. I would recommend that transportation be given. Mr James Wynne who is interested in the welfare of these children and in their Parents before them, will go with them at his own expense provided the request is granted.
Very Respectfully
Your Obdt Servt
