to send a list of such claimants to such Post Master as would be most favorable for discovering the claimants and allow the Post Master a bounty (one or two dollars each I think would answer the purpose) for each claimant found by him, to be paid after the claimant has established his identity and reseived his money.
That I be authorized to send to Mr McHutchins Maysville Mason Co, Mr J.Y. Hamilton Lexington, R H Martin Campbellsville Taylor Co to S. Simpson Franklin Simpson Co Ky to N.S. Littlefield Smithland Livingston Co and Mr Wm. Reavis Evansville Ind. a list of the undiscovered claimants with the same offer of bounty on the same conditions as before stated.
The gentlemen whose names I have mentioned I am satisfied are reliable and are largely acquainted with the colored population of this District and will upon the conditions proposed take an interest in the discover of claimants.
I am General
Very Respectfully
