If you thought it desirable that I should receive my appointment from you and report directly to you (as was sugested by a member of the Bureau) I am perfectly willing to do so. It might give me greater facilities as funds for deferent purposes are not always in the branches of the Bureau  On this subject I can converse with Col Sprague as he will likely return today or tomorrow
