have the honor to acknowledge the receipt
Of the resolution Of yesterday, requesting in
formation in reference TO- pre-emption and
scrip entries 81 lands in sections 16 and 36, and
in reply would say that have taken measures
to ascertain from the several United States land
offices in the State the amount Of land SO taken.
with view to obtaining indemnity for the
same, in connection with selections for indem-
nifty for deficiencies from natural causes, as in
intended to have accomplished this last
year but could net make proper commencement
Of the business until had received an adjust
l. -ment Of the inden nifty selections made BY Mr.
McIlrath in 1870 referred to on page 48 Of my
report. It is not probable that large amount
of land has been taken in this way since the
selection Of that year.
have entered general protest to the Com
missioner Of the General Land Office against
allowing any claim to sections Is and IS in this

gality, which expect to be enabled to do at
| the proper time.
