Acknowledgement
   The ladies of the Twiggs County Soldiers' Relief Society would return their grateful thanks to his honor A. E. Cochran, President of the Macon & Brunswick Railroad, for the great favor shown them in passing goods, clothes and other reliefs for our brave soldiers, as well also as transporting our agents over his road free of charge, other than a ticket or note to the conductor accompanying each box or package in care of such agent or agents.
   I would, therefore, in behalf of the several divisions of said Society, recommend a strict adherence and implicit obedience to the requisition, that no imposition be practiced or advantage taken of so praiseworthy and benevolent an act of the officers and owners of said road.
