Houston Texas January 10^th 1865. Major Jon Hardon Galveston.

Sir

I have the honor to inform you that I have some Government property, left at Galveston which I will turn over to you in person as soon I am able to come down the little articles which I have here are [[macount?]].

The property is safe at Galveston & as you have no protection as present it is bother to leave it in the hands of good citizens.

Yours with high regard. A. E. Dege Late Capt of Lt Artillery
