Captain,
   ***** There is no mineral coal or coke in Macon. I have not had a pound for the past 9 months and Col. Cuyler but a very little. I use charcoal exclusively, and you must do the same if you cannot get coal from Selma, which is the only source of supply at present. I have no arrangement in force for getting supplies of coal from Selma, and therefore regret that I cannot loan you some. *****
I am Captain
Respectfully Your Obdt Servt
Jas. H. Burton
Supt. of Armories
