(Wrapper 1 Enclosure) Bureau R.F. and A. Lands, Office 4.D. 9th Sub. Dist. Va. Stanton, Va, June 15th 1868 Respectfully returned to Captain Jno. A. Mc Donnell S.A.C> 9th S. Dist. Va. with the remark, that upon investigation, I find that the within named Edward Brooks is a reliable industrious man employed at good wages, is married, and has a large family to support. He is willing and I presume can provide for his father. He resides about six miles from Stanton, and in the event the father is sent here, I would suggest that the son be notified through this office as to the date &c upon which the father will leave Richmond. Jno. W. Jordan Asst Sub Asst Comr 4th Divn 9th S. Dist Va. E&M 1V./68.16.
