Manypenny Commissioner of Indian Affs. Washington City D.C. Sir, According to request in your letter of Aug. 8 last, I proceed to give you an estimate of goods designed as presents etc. in negotiating treaties with the Indians of this Territory. I would merely suggest that if I am to attend to the disbursing of this appropriation I should very much like to have the money deposited in St. Louis subject to my order without delay. It is now time to be making arrangements if the business is to be done the ensuing year. The same reasons for the money being drawn and deposited will apply let who may, have the disbursing of it.= |
