Office Asst. Supt.
Bureau R F &c
Suffolk July 20th 1866

Captain -
I had the honor on the 23d ult to ask for a leave of absence. My application was returned by the Asst Commissioner "disapproved," with the privilege of renewing in about two weeks. At the time referred to I could not consistently renew my application owing to the unsettled condition of the affair of my Sub-District; the presence of a small force at this place has removed the necessity for my continued stay and I respectfully ask leave of absence for 15 days to go home in the interior of New York on important business
Very Resptly.
Your Obt Svt.
