Norfolk Va Jan 9th 1866
Respectfully returned. I send herewith the original application of Mr Emmerson together with the endorsement thereon. From these it will be seen that this matter has been fully investigated and reported on. In reply to my report dated Nov 4th 1865, I was directed by the endorsement of the Asst Commissioner to notify the parties to make application for the property as directed in Genl order No. 19. - I have done this and as will be seen from the statement of Mr Bond, herewith enclosed. My notice was treated disrespectfully.
I respectfully submit that these parties have abused the lenity of the Bureau, and should be compelled to pay all rents now accruing.
