I have enclosed General Seelys letter to me
of the 4 Act whose kindness towards the old Soldier has
induced him to ask me to conduct the business -- the
letter of Colonel Dearborn to the General I do not think
necessary to forward, as General Seely tells me there is
a copy of it on the War Office Books.

I am very respectfully
Sir
Your most Obed. Serv.
