content: The monthly reports of persons and articles hired, October–December 1865, November–December 1866, and January 1867–December 1868, are arranged chronologically by month. Although the series includes retained copies of the Assistant Commissioner's reports, most of the records consist of reports received from the offices of the Chief Quartermaster, the Superintendent of Education, and the Surgeon–in–Chief. The reports were prepared on tabular forms, with each entry giving the name of the person or type of article hired, occupation of a person or use of an article, number of days a person was employed or an article was rented, rate of compensation, and the amount of compensation due. Included are a few consolidated reports covering periods of more than 1 month.
