Sir:
Your communication of the 12th inst has been recd and, in reply, I would say that every means within my power have been used to secure the payment of the note.  It has been placed in the hands of the Civil Authorities for collection, and by them Mr Bryant was arrested and required to produce responsible security for the payment of the same which he did.  I trust that I shall soon have the honor of forwarding you the amt claimed.

Respectfully
Your Obt Srvt
