Greenville Kentucky

Dear Sir

Your claim was allowed in April 1870 and placed
in hands of the Freedmans Bureau for payment and I suffer it is sharing the path of number
of others placed in their hand.  You had better get some one at U of Nashville  to write to
the agent and try to get him to pay you. I have done all I can.
