Bureau sends orders to Capt Finnie to turn over all the iron he can at
Duff Greens furnace to Engineer in Charge. For the remainder apply to
Maj. Wm R. Hunt, Selma, Alabama. Or perhaps Major Glover QrMaster, can
turn over to you the iron at Cartersville. As far as possible, all the
old anchor irons of the bridges should be used again -- the balance
kept for the Government. Call on Capt. Hayden to assist with Bridges,
if you need him. {Probably related to the
repair of the Holston River bridge on the East Tennessee &
Virginia RR} |
