Since I have sent for them I have not had time to overlook our accounts until today. I send you the blank invoice you gave me with a list of articles that I actually re’cd from you -- the orders for forage -- were neither of them filled. You furnished me with orders in Janry for 2624 lbs corn -- all of which I got. 2094 lbs fodder but I could not get but 1170 as it was not to be had. in Feb the orders called for 5220 lbs Corn of which we got 3280 lbs. 4567 lbs fodder of which I got 1010 lbs. which amts I have entered upon the invoices I send.

Ten Morning Report books, Ten descrip- tive books & Twenty lbs Axle grease -- which I had not time to get before we left Savannah -- the order I return with this.
