   You will proceed by train of tomorrow to Barclays Station on the line of the M. & Brunswick R. R. and there see Mr Pearce who offers 100 cords of dry pine wood for sale. You will inspect the wood if not sold, and if you find it to be of good quality for steam purposes, and dry, you are hereby authorized to purchase the same, on the best terms you may be able to make with the owner. You will also measure the quantity of wood offered, if in ranks. Payment for the wood will be made at this Armory as soon as the same is purchased. The above duty performed you will return to this Armory and report to me.
Respectfully Your Obedt Servt
