closed will justify my discharge from the responsibility imposed upon me in connection therewith.
I have approved and ordered to be carried into execution the Colonels recommendation concerning the 2nd Story for the administration part of the hospital building - also the one that such amount as may be left after building Hospital, or so much of it as may be necessary - be expended in grading the grounds and building fences about the hospital - also the one that the unexpended balance of the $70,000.00 be used for complexing the stables and fences about the post. I respectfully request compliance with his suggestion for a small steam pump for keeping up a supply of water for the use of the post and for use in case of fires.
