Sir, |
|
You wrote me on the 2nd Inst. that cars would leave here on
the following morning at 4 oclock for the Clover Hill Pits to be loaded
with coal for Wilmington N. C. Maj. Morfit telegraphs that the coal has
not reached Petersburg yet. Please endorse on the back of this letter
the cause of the delay. |

Respectfully |
