Recommendation of Capt Jno. Mackey for appointment as Agent of the Freedmens Bureau.

Respectfully referred to Gen Kiddoo with the request that Mr. Mackey may be appointed as an agent of the Bureau.

The parties signing the within petition are reliable Union men, and I have reason to believe that they would recommend no man as an agent who is disqualified for the position.
