notable item/thing
cooperate with me in obtaining the appointment
fill up my time and afford me decent support
appointments as they stand
to his astonishment previous to the day of payment
Secretary of the Treasury remitted
dollars to discharge the abstract altho' he had an abundant supply on hand
only reason assigned was that no breach might be made in the cash on hand as it stood in his monthly return
bar to his application to be excused from again paying those people
at a suitable time mention the matter again
back my application to the appointment
alteration should be meditated
honored with your letter
perfectly right in regarding mine
private letter
feel grateful for the reply
Collectors
paymasters to the Invalids to prevent the public money
permit me to inform you
