Dear Sir,
   I recd. yours of the 3d today. I regret to inform you of the death of one of your negro boys left in hospital. He died the second day after you left. The other was rapidly improving when last reported by Dr Wilson. I have not been able to see the Doct. today. The death would have been reported by me but for Dr. Wilson who stated that he would make the report. I will inform you at the earliest moment that the other boy is able to be removed.
   In our settlement I neglected to take your duplicate signature on Pay Roll as required by the Dept. Please sign opposite the amount ($1500) and return by mail.
   The Pay Roll with envelop & postage is herewith enclosed.
Very truly Yrs.
L. P. Grant
Capt. Engrs.
