They retired well satisfied with themselves, and with the action of the Confederate Government, consequently peace and quietness may be expected to prevail in future upon the frontier of Texas, provided, however, that a band of fugitives from the various clans who have congregated on the Pecos, numbering it is said one hundred and fifty or two hundred, governed by no law and disposed to spread desolation wherever they go, are destroyed or our troops can receive aid from the bands who have treated in hunting down and destroying those "fellows". I am sir, Very respectfully, Your obt. ser't [M. LEEPER] Ind. Agency, C. S. A. NOTICE As Agent and Acting Commissioner on the part of the Confederate States of America, I have entered into Solemn Treaty stipulations of perpetual friendship and peace with the Kioway Indians and wild bands of Comanches except the Kna-ha-ra-tet-sa-co-no whose habitations are on the Western extremity of the "Staked Plains" and with those I am negotiating and will probably conclude a treaty some time in September next. Therefore perfect peace and quietness may soon be expected to prevail on the Texas frontier. In order to convince the Indians of our sincerity and punctuality, it is necessary to comply strictly with the Treaty, and to do that, the Government expects me to employ four or five farmers and twenty laborers which I desire to do; farmers with families would be preferred, to whom fifty dollars per month and rations will be given, and to laborers twenty-five dollars per month and rations, negro men would be preferred. At present there is not the slightest danger there, the agency is one of the most quiet and peaceful places within the limits of the Confederate Government. Apply to the undersigned who will remain a few days in Sherman and afterward at the Washita Agency. July 21st 1862. LEEPER [?] TO PARKS SHERMAN, TEXAS, July 28th, 1862. MR. ROBERT W. PARKS,
