H. S. Hawkins, U.S. Disbursing Officer, Louisville, Ky. 

The Hammond heirs, Manson, Milton & Martha had a settlement with you at Huntsville, about the 11th inst, according to your notice to them. I have not seen them since, but they reported to their witness, Ben Hammond, that you retained $7.00 fees for me. You will please inform me whether this is so or or not. I suppose, however, it was a mere come off with them.

I worked at this thing for them over a year, at trouble & expense & they were to hand my fee to the witness that day. Your reply will much oblige &c
