To Maj Gen Howard
Bureau of Freedmen &c

The undersigned having been very familiarly acquainted with Rev'd Thomas Harwood Chaplain 25th Wisconsin Vols. and knowing him to be capable, honest & sincere in his desire to do good & that he served over a year in the ranks before he became chaplain, would recommend him for an appointment in your Bureau. He desires a place where he can still be useful in the performance of his clerical duties as well as the duties of his office. 

Respectfully
C.A. Stevens
