Secretaries: GEORGE WHIPPLE - New York MICHAEL E. STRIEBY JACOB R. SHIPHERD - Chicago AMERICAN MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION: 29, Lombard Block; Chicago, June 6, 1867 Sir: I forward for the information of the Commissioner the enclosed article written, it is understood, by Mr Wheelock, with comments by a gentleman conversant with all the facts. I have on file evidence that Mr Wheelock's recent official reports are not more accurate than this article These figures coupled with the emphatic testimony of General Kiddoo's adjutant certainly present a striking and suggestive array of statements. Very Respectfully J R Shipherd Secretary O.O. Howard Maj. Gen. & Comr. Washington D.C.
