And again I had never supposed for an instant that any of my rights or liberties as a citizen or as an officer of the Govmt and especilly as an officer of the Freedmens Bureau, would ever be left to the arbitration of men who in their hearts hate the Gov'mt of the United States, and who are sworn enemies of the freedmens bureau and all connected with it 

That my ejectment from Hollys house arose from a collusion between Holly and some of the citizens of the town I have no doubt whatever 

I have waited long and anxiously for some advice or assistance in this matter as claim has been made on the contents of my pocket book by the sharks of the law feeding a Govmt horse which they forcibly took from me - thereby compelling me to hire a horse to enable me to obey instructions received from Gen'l H. Neide - 

I earnestly pray that you will take some immediate action in this matter and that I may be released from the power of these men who surround me, who are willing and ready to lend a helping hand anything that would injure me - 

I am Gen'l Your obdt
Servant
