Fort Sill, D.T., Sept. 24.1874 Chief Dr.Mr. D.T. Dear Colonel Holabird, Enclosed you will find copy of another letter from Col.Mackenzie on the subject of delay in sending forward stores by Mr.Graham. You will remember what importance was attached to the point of having this corn at Griffin on the fifth of Septbr. Was Mr.Graham informed of this? Was Capt. Strang informed? If so, there has been great indifference manifested apparently by one or both of them. Please ascertain and report all the facts in the case. I will again call your attention to the point of changing our working points on the Railraod from Denison to Dallas. I wish to have your report on this subject; so soon as you can make it, with all the facts before you.

Has Strong given any statement or opinion to the M.K.& T road on the subject?If so what was it? I do not think it will be necessary for you to come here, if you can see Mcthaim? and other contractors, and arrange
