I would say, respectfully, that all reports called for have been Forwarded, except the "report of Bureau Property" I have been unable to complete this, on account of being unable to obtain as yet, the proper transfer papers for some property received from the Treasury Department. This report will be furnished in a day or two- If any of these reports have Failed to reach you, & you will notify me which are still wanting I will Forward duplicate copies of those which are missing- I trust Col. this explanation will be satisfactory- I shall see you personally during the next week. Very Respty
