| General, |
| General Gordon wishes to
know how long it will be before you can move, and what is going on
in your rear. He is anxious for you to start, as Generals Evans and
Walker have gone on. How much artillery and train is still to bring
up? |
| Thos. G. Jones |
| Aide-de-Camp |
| P. S. -- If more trains can
be provided you will carry as many of your [sic]. If not
inconvenient to you that you will ride up here; he would like to see
you. Mr. Bird {Superintendent, South Side RR} says he can supply one train at 9 o'clock. Have you
ascertained its capacity? Can only one be supplied? General Lee
wishes to send all you command. |
| Yours, |
| W. H. Taylor |
| Assistant Adjutant-General |
