"Make such practical and judicious suggestions as will, in your opinion, render the operations of the Bureau more efficient, &c., &c."

The only suggestion I could make, which would render my duties, more efficient, would be that the sheriffs, marshals or constables be required to serve writ and arrest persons on the order of the Sub-Ass't. Com'r. if something of that kind is not devised for his assistance it will be extremely hard to get along.

Very Respectfully
Your Ob't Serv't.
James P. Butler
Sub-Ass't. Com'r.
Bu. R., F. & A.L.
