Dalton, January 12, 1864
 
His Excellency J. E. Brown
Milledgeville
 
   The railroad from Atlanta {Western & Atlantic RR} does not supply our wants. Our officers complain of great negligence in the management of the trains and great delay from want of fuel. I beg Your Excellency to consider that the army here depends for subsistence on this Georgia railroad. If it does not supply us we cannot defend this portion of the State.
J. E. Johnston
