Title
Simmons Writes Ball to Request Forwarding of his Authority or Contract, as well as Duplicates of his Vouchers
Description
Simmons wrote a letter to Ball on the 16th of October acknowledging receipt of Ball's letter dated October 2nd, along with the accounts and vouchers for his supplies. Simmons requested the authority or contract Ball was operating under, though he is yet to receive a reply. Simmons now writes to request that, due to the fire at the War Department, Ball forward the duplicates of all his vouchers which were observed by Simmons in every instance to be taken by Ball himself or one of his agents.
