San Francisco 4th May 1859

Hon. Chas. E. Mix,
Commissioner of Indian Affairs
Washington,

Sir,

On the 18th Janry last we sold
Thos J Henley 126 barrels of Navy Bread for stores for the
Indian Department of this State, upon the 25th of the same
month, he approved the Bill for $531 79/100 "payable upon the
Receipt of the remittance from the Indian Department for the
4th quarter of 1858." Since then, Mr Henley has resigned
and we cannot learn from whom we are to obtain payment
of this account. Will you be kind enough to inform us?
Mr Henley represented at the time that the remittance was
expected within a month, consequently, we sold at a cash
price.

We Remain
Very Respectfully,
C. Adolphe Low & Co.
