   Your note relative to transportation of gun boat iron is received. It will be necessary to make application either to General Beauregard or to the War Dept. I have no authority over the trains of the Augusta & other southern roads running to this point, they being under the special control of Major Sims Chf of R. Rd. bureau & employed, I believe altogether in transportation of corn & cotton.
Very Respectfully
W. H. C. Whiting
