Feb 26th 1866

Brvt Brig General E.M. Gregory

General
I have the honor of forwarding to your address the enclosed communication rec'd from the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen &c at Washington City which will explain itself and be my apology for introducing myself to you.

I will only say farther that if my services should be accepted by you a location in Western Texas would be preferred by me and that an appointment in that locality would be gladly received

If this is answered please inform me of the duties required and whether the pay attached is such as I informed the Bureau at Washington I would expect in my application to that office of Jan 29th and which was refferred to you -  

Very Respectfully
Your Obt Servt
John L Blinn
