            Capt Nat. S. Wheeler

                        125^th U.S.C.T.

                                                            Captain:

                                                                        The amount due the regimental treasury from Fort Stanton New Mexico has been received in the form of a check payable to your order—which check I have the honor to transmit for your signature—it would be best to make it payable to the order of myself as the stay of Hd. Qrs. at this point is uncertain as is also the time of the arrival of the Adjt. at Hd. Qrs. and it would be desirable to turn it into money in case of a move—Please return the check at your earliest convenience—

 

                                                                        Respectfully

                                                                                    Your Obedient Servant

                                                                                                WWR Dewalt

                                                                                                Col Comdg
