Sir,
Enclosed please find letter from T. J. Henley relative to property accounts. In accordance with your instructions dated June 18th 1864 in relation to property in the handle of T. J. Henley. I called on him for the property producing my authority in the premises. He asked for time (to the 1st of October) which was granted. I then made another demand when he reported that he was completing his arrangements for the delivery and would be ready by 10th of November (after the election) This also was granted. Nothing having been done up to the 15th of November. I notified him that I should report on the 12th inst (today) that I had complied with my instructions and no property could be obtained. He then offered me the bond of S. J. Hensley in whose hands the cattle are said to be to deliver to me at a certain time and place; a certain number of cattle. This would be perfectly good and I agreed to accept it and report
