Covesville, Alb. Co. V.
Jan 23rd 1867

Genl Schofield
Dear Sir
As you have
revoked the order to take all "U.S."
horses, I hope you will give me a "special
order" for Lieut Stevenson at Nelson C.H.
to give me back the horse he took
from me under special order from
you he says. General I lost all
of my horses and everything else
by Gen Sheridan's army, and as
every body else is holding their
"U.S." horses. I hope you will be
kind enough to have my horse
returned to me until general
distribution be made of such stock.
Hoping to hear from you at
your convenience.
I am Genl
Respectfully yours
Thomas Martin
