I send the report in D. Duncan’s care. The successor I suggested is George Hoffman of Michigan territory & the designation of the office Collector of the District of Michillimakinac & Inspector of the Revenue for the port of Michillimakinac.

Mr Hoffman is Register of the Land Office of Detroit which office I also suggested might be given to Stanley Griswold; but his nomination (of S. Griswold) need not be immediate.

With respectful attachment Your obedt. Sert.
