| General, |
| The Lieut Genl Comdg directs
me to say that great delay is caused in their movement by the 12th La
Regt not arriving promptly at the train at the time appointed for its
departure, this morning. He directs that your quarter master inform
himself when each train will be ready to start, and that the troops be
ordered so as to be punctual at the time, that there may be no further
delay or difficulty in their movement. |
