PS in Sd County — please ford Commissions — and in District No 5 please send Commission for Capt. James Carey for J. P. he has lately returned from the War and is Well qualified and has been in Office before the War — J. E. Johnson wants it, but no Rebel sympathizer should have it especially when he says he got a letter from Lincoln in 'hell'

Very Respectfully & truly
