I have the honor to ask transportation for Sargent Gillespie (col) wife and three children aged 13-9 and 7 years to of from Raleigh to Charlotte, N.C. This family have come on foot to this City from Wayne Co. N.C.  They are sick and dependent on the Bureau, and in their present condition must be aided still further.  They have a home at Charlotte and will be able to care for themselves. they would have gone the entire distance on foot if they had not been sick.
Very Respectfully

Miles Maj Genl N.A.
Assistant Commissioner.

General
I have the honor to report according tot he requirement of Circular No 5. calling for information of the destitute in my District which comprises the Counties of Wake, Chatham and Johnson.  It is difficult to determine in all cases represented at my Office the true condition of each who apply for aid neither is it possible to give a personal investigation of each case.  As far as I have the ability and means of procuring information, my conviction is there is great destitution principly among what is termed Croppers.  There are many very old people, ranging from 70 to 110 years of age within five and ten miles of Raleigh.  Of the latter class there are 150 disabled by age
