Head-Quarters District of Alabama, Montgomery, Ala, July 6th 1867 Major General O.O. Howard Washington D.C. Dear General I am this morning in receipt of your telegram of yesterday in reference to the contract made with Mr Nettleton. What I have written heretofore was under the impression that the details of the matter had not had your attention. This, of course is all that I desire. Major Browning will go to Mobile this afternoon to inspect and receive all the meat referred to in the contract. Very respectfully your obedient servant Wager Swayne Maj. Gen. & Asst. Comm'r.
