| General, |
| Your letter of the 12 inst to
me, with the telegrams of the same date to Genls Price and Breckinridge,
and your telegram of the 6th to Col Tate Supt M. & C. RR
{Memphis & Charleston RR} were received a
few minutes since. ***** |
| The work of repairing the
Nashville & Chattanooga RR is going on rapidly. One or two trains will
be crossing over the River at Bridgeport today and a train will go as
far as Cowan tomorrow. The Superintendent of the Road, Mr Cole, who is
active and zealous thinks the cars may run to Murfreesboro in the course
of a week. I am informed that the {Memphis &
Charleston RR} Road from Stevenson to Huntsville was but slightly
damaged by the enemy. ***** |
