Sir

The accompanying claim has been handed me by Robert Brick a Freedman, to be forwarded as it now is, but I have as yet been unable to learn anything concerning claims of Freedpeople previously forwarded.

I should be glad to [deleted: learn] receive any information that would tend to assist the Freedmen in obtaining compensation for losses sustained by them.

I am, Sir &c
