Dear Sir,
   On the 15th of January last the accounts held by this Company against the Government, amounting to $15,768.32 were referred to Col Wm. W. Wadley A A G with the request that he would assist us in their adjustment. At the time the accounts were referred Col Wadley was made acquainted with all the facts connected with these transactions, and after consideration, he agreed and recommended their payment. I have since learned from the Adjutant & Inspector General that these claims have been put in your hands. I would respectfully ask your early attention to these claims with the view to an early settlement, as one year has elapsed since the services were performed.
Very respectfully
Your obt Svt
R. L. Singletary
Pres C&S
