Waco, Texas Aug 21st 1867 Lieut J.T. Kirkman A.A.A.G. Dr Sir: I have been introduced to Mr. W.S. Reynolds of Waco, formerly of the State and City of New York. Mr. R is a man of good intelligence, and his perception & discernment are well developed. He has, heretofore, been employed in N.Y. as a detective, just such a man as is needed in many portions of Texas. Mr. R has talked with Capt. Sailor of A.Q.M department, & who knows this gentleman. For so short an acquaintance, I am most favorably impressed with Mr. R. And bespeak in his behalf anything you can consistently do for him. I refer you to Capt. Sailor Very truly B.W. Gray I fully endorse the above letter James Jay Emerson Capt 26 Infy Comdg Post
