Ebenezer Rockwood Hoar to Columbus Delano, 29 July 1869

July 29, 1869. Hon. C. Delano, Com. of Internal Revenue. Sir: I desire to submit to your inspection a letter this day received from the U. S. Marshal of the Western District of Missouri, to whom I had transmitted a statement of the complaints which came from your Bureau. I have no doubt that Mr. Smith means to make himself a faithful and efficient officer. Will you be so kind as to return his letter to this office when you have read it? Very respectfully, E. R. Hoar, Attorney General.
