Since writing an application for a teacher to replace Mr. G. W. Hewitt I have rec'd a letter from him dated Alexandria La. Aug 3rd 1867 in which he states that he arrived there that morning and laid the whole affair before Col. Bates who reported the facts to Genl. Sheridan, he further says that he will return via New Orleans
I am Sir
Very Respectfully
Your Obdt. Servt.
