reserve or his proper heirs. The amount to be paid to each reserve is indicated
opposite his or her name and the amount due to all embraced on said list forms an
aggregate of $ 11,102.62 which is herewith put into your hands. The payments to this
Office consist generally of Certificates of deposit in Banks of Columbus Georgia which
will render it necessary that you visit that place on your return to your agency to
