this affair satisfactory & no evidence of fraud existing I at once returned to this office.

In concluding this report I would most respectfully suggest that some steps be taken to compel the parties receiving Govt transportation to be more particular in filling out & signing the receipts attached to the transportation vouchers as I am convinced that in many instances the receipts are signed in Blank relying upon the Conductors promises to fill in the actual number transported, thus through neglect, dishonest motives, or other causes the Government may be compelled to pay the Expense of transporting parties when in fact the service has never been rendered

I remain very respectfully
Your obdt servant
