Sir,

I am instructed to acknowledge the receipt of your note of the 23d ultimo, requesting that Mrs Martha Jones may be permitted to visit her husband in Richmond Va and afterwards return to her home in Kentucky, and in reply to say that the War Department regrets that the desired permission cannot possibly be granted at this time.

I have the honor to be Sir,
Very Respectfully
Your obedient Servant
