Genl Tillson:

Sir:

Enclosed please find the papers containing application of Jno. B. Walker for transportation etc. sent me a few days hence.

I have carefully examined int the condition of the Freedmen who Mr. W. wished to remove and unhesitatingly pronounce them not destitute: in fact Mr. W. frankly stated the same to me and gave it as his opinion that there was need of my going to see the Freedpeople. He is satisfied.

Yours very Respectfully
John W. Burney
Agt. &c for Morgan County
