| I certify that the above account is
correct and just; the articles are to be, or have been accounted for
on my property return for the First quarter ending on the 31st day of
March 1863. |

|
| Received at Raleigh. the 15th of January 1863, of Capt Thos R Sharp
Assistant Quartermaster C. S. Army, Thirteen dollars and Eighty nine
cents, in full of the above
account. |

| {The printed form has the
notation, to the left of the sum in the table, "Service removing
Balt. & O. rails and machinery." The location is
"Winchester" and the paying officer is "Capt. F(rank)
P. Clark." All three of these printed items have been lined
through and the words transcribed above have been added. It is clear
that Capt. Clark, on duty as a Quartermaster in Winchester, was
sufficiently involved in Capt. Sharp's removal of Baltimore & Ohio
RR material that he had forms printed with that information on them.} |
