Milledgeville
January 15, 1864
 
General A. R. Lawton
 
   Our rolling-stock {on the Western & Atlantic RR} has been carried off under military orders and lost or destroyed till we have not enough to meet a heavy demand for transportation. I ask that you put upon the road two good engines and trains of cars in place of eight lost or destroyed by the military. We can then do the carrying for the army promptly. Otherwise I cannot promise certainty of transportation.
