Freedmen's Bureau Records: John A. McDonnell to John W. Jordan, May 30, 1868

Summary:
McDonnell forwards an instruction Circular to Jordan, and informs him about certain stationery supply proceedures.


Bureau Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands
Head Quarters, 9th Sub District Virginia Colonel John W. Jordan
Assistant Sub Assistant Commissioner
Staunton, Virginia

May 30th 1868

Winchester,

Colonel

Enclosed herewith I have the honor to transmit one copy of Circular No. 4 Circular Series from Bureau Head Quarters. Please acknowledge its receipt.

Stationery will be drawn as heretofore by the Sub Assistant Commissioner for himself and subordinates and he will [added: continue to] furnish them with the quantity necessary for the transaction of their official business.

It is not supposed that any more stationery will be used than heretofore, but the allowance is increased to avoid the necessity of special Requisitions to supply deficiency.

Very Respectfully
Your Obedient Servant

John A. McDonnell
Sub Assistant Commissioner
