UG, RRB 3/27/1863

Milledgeville & Macon Telegraph Form

Dated Vicksburg 27 1863
To Gov Joseph E Brown
 
   I made application to the Secretary of war in reference to Major Scrivens iron as I promised and have this day telegraphed asking suspension of action as to taking it until Major Scrivens letter is which I fully concur is submitted
W. M. Wadley
{Up to this date, I have seen no sign of the Governor being involved in the iron issues of any railroad, except the Western & Atlantic RR, so I assume the iron in question here was desired for the W&A RR}
{The date of March 27, 1863 comes from an archivist's notation on the top of the telegram}
