This series consists mainly of incoming correspondence directed or forwarded to the Inspector General's Office. The files are routine in nature and deal with such topics as the construction and repair of state armories, inspection of troops at depots and recruiting stations and review of various claims. These records are only a small part of this office's correspondence files; there are many gaps.
