I believe Miss Carroll has earned fairly, and should be paid, the compensation she has charged above.
Thos. A. Scott.
Philadelphia, January 28, 1863.
All my interviews with Miss Carroll were in my official capacity as Assistant Secretary of War, and in that capacity I would have allowed, and believed she should be paid, the amount of her bill within, which is certified as being reasonable by many of the leading men of the country.
Thos. A. Scott.
