Bvt. Maj. Gen. Chas. Griffin
Asst. Com'r
Galveston Texas

Sir:

I have to report that I have this day opened my office in Palestine and entered upon the duties of my office and commissioner operations.

For the present I have rented an office at five ($5.00) dollars per month. I have made an agreement with Wm. V. Turnstall as Clerk and I wish you to send me his appointment as Clerk. Business is accumulating rapidly. We will have all we can do for a great while.

Please send me stationary Blanks and forms. Or shall we procure them here.

We very much need a Physician. One Dr. Geo. D.
