Hon. James A. Seddon
Secty of War
 
Sir,
   I learn from C. T. Pollard Esq Prest of the Montgomery & West Point Railroad that there is some hesitancy in the part of Gen Buckner in ordering rails removed from the Roads indicated by you, from which the Montgomery & West Point Road should be supplied. I beg again to urge the great necessity for prompt action in this matter, and would respectfully suggest that, of the three Roads indicated, the Ala. & Fla. Road of Fla. would be much the most convenient, and that the rails from the other two Roads should be kept to supply Roads west of the Ala. River.
I remain, sir, Very respectfully
Your obdt servant
Wm. M. Wadley
A. A. Gen.
