November 5 <sup>nd</sup> 1846.

[illegible],
 +
Agreeable to instruction from you I have
 +
accompanied the Miami Indians in their
 +
emigration from Peru, Ia. to [illegible] Mo.
 +
From careful observation I can state that
 +
the contractors have amply provided the Indians
 +
with provisions for their subsistence on the route,
 +
of good quality, and entirely satisfactory to the
 +
Indians themselves. No complaint of
 +
scarcity of provision has been made by any Indian
 +
within my knowledge, to which the contractors
 +
have not immediately attended- and I am
 +
acquainted with many [illegible] in which the
 +
Indians [illegible] with abundance have wasted
 +
much of their provisions.
 +
I have the honor to be ,
 +
your [illegible] servant
