| Sir, |
| The transportation of the
ammunition intended for Genl Loring must be so changed that it can go by
the NO&J RR {New Orleans, Jackson & Great Northern
RR} & by {Mississippi} Central RR to
Vaughn Station {15 miles south of Canton on the
Mississippi Central RR}. It is understood that the transportation
already furnished is for the ammunition to go over the SRR
{Southern (of Mississippi) RR} to
Vicksburg. This must be changed. |
