leaving for Gibson at 11 AM. I have to meet the Agent of the Cherokees - a chief of that Nation at Gibson on Tuesday. I will have twenty Horses sent from here to Fort Gibson. and will select on from that number so that Capt. Nolan need not select any horse for m e from these sent to Fort Sill. Matters have quieted down very much since the arrival of Capt. ((Sims?))Company. I have by order of Gen ((Sheridan?)) directed Lt. Quimby with his detachment of infantry to rejoin his proper Station Fort ((Somer?))and he starts for that point to-morrow
