Miss Van Lew

Since preparing the communication to Capt. Bates relative to Mr. Randen, I have learned that Mr. Randen served in the U.S. Army five years during the war and was Regimental Quartermaster of the 1st N. Y. Mounted Rifles when mustered out of service. Three clerks in my employ served in the same regiment with him.

Captain,
The Asst. Comm. directs that you will send the proper officer to the scene of the late explosion at Clover Hill mine to investigate and report upon the condition of the sufferers and their families. You are authorized to issue rations regardless of color to those rendered destitute by the disaster and to such extent as you may deem necessary to prevent starvation.  

Respectfully

Peters, Esq. T.C.
Agent Agricultural Bureau
- -/

Sir,
I would respectfully request that the following list of seeds be sent to each of the officers of the Bureau in this State, whose names and Post Office address is herewith enclosed, for gratuitous distribution among the freedmen.

I need not add that such distribution will be of great benefit to the freedmen and will undoubtedly secure the self support of many who without such aid will become dependent on the Government.

Hoping that this request may receive prompt attention,

I remain Sir
With much respect, your Obt. Sert.
