Frankfort Ky 9th Apl 1873 

To Gen A.P. Howe
174 1/2 - 4th St
Louisville Ky

Dear Sir
Your circular letter of date 25 March was not received by me until after the 2nd day of April, the day I was notified to appear in Lexington to receive my Bounty money. Had I received the letter sooner I could not have gone to Lexington for I am a confirmed invalid, and bed ridden; totally unable to travel or even go up town - I therefore earnestly entreat you to make your arrangement to pay me here in person or by check or through Gen'l Lindsey or his brother or the Postmaster or in any way which best suits your wishes -
Very Resptfly 
Rachel Samuel
