Hopkinsville Kentucky Augt 9 1871 Hon W. W. Belknap Secretary of War Washington D.C. Sir I have written to Mr. Dell Glassie and also sent him one of my Circulars and he fails to answer me. I have also written to the office of the Freedmens Bureau at Washington and they fail to give me any other information than that Glasser says he paid the claims. I am at a loss to know how to get my money. I have ample proof by whites & colored of the truth of my statement. With great respect yours Saml. Burrell his X mark
