Hanson 7 dollars expense of pack train to Ukiah City
two hundred and sixty two dollars and fifty cts
that Hanson swindled me out of by stating that
my salary had been curtailed 25 dollars per month
from the first of July 1862 until the 15th of May 10/62
months and a half and likewise two month and
six days that servises that I paid George Bowers
as as an employee on the Reservation when I was
compiled to have a hand and could not get one
on the credit of the government throught Hanson
there is one other item which Hanson made me
pay that there never had been any other Supervisor
from the time the Reservation System was organized
on the Pacific Coast until the present time
has paid that is groceries I had to pay 179 dollars
for groceries during the time that I was on the
place that may be all right but then if it is
it is not right for the other to have it free
there is one other item that I will mention
last fall when I returned from Washington
and came into the Valley the Supervisor
on the reservation was absent from the reservation
there was about 150 sick Indians scattered along
the trail for fifty miles across the mountains
