Freedmen's Bureau Records: John A. McDonnell to
Thomas P. Jackson, June 18, 1867
Summary:
McDonnell writes a relatively informal letter to Jackson regarding an application
for clerks in his division.
Mr. Thos. P. Jackson
June 18th 1867
Winchester, Va.
Dr. Sir:
The money to which you refer was received all right. I will forward an
application for clerk with a favorable endorsement. If you have good men for
"Registers at large" your Bureau affairs should not be much embarrassed by being
chairman of the board. However, you know best what assistance they can render
you.

Make the application and see what Genl Brown will do.
Truly Yours
John A. McDonnell
