General "Stonewall" Jackson asks General Jesup whether officers of light batteries should shod their horses at their own expense or at the expense of the public. Note on verso dated 20 October 1849 in unknown hand states that "Private horses of forage officers can be shod at the public shops - but no expenditure of money is authorized."
