| Sir, |
| I have a large amount of clothing destined
to Corinth which is stopped at Lynchburg, as the enemy is reported to
be in possession of Huntsville. I will be obliged if you will advise
me of the best way by which the articles can be sent on. |
| Would it be safe to send them on the south
to Dalton and so on to Mobile via Atlanta and Montgomery or should the
stores be ordered to Petersburg to the South? |
| I hesitate to send them by Selma to
Meridian, as there is some land transportation by wagons, on that
route. |
