| Colonel, |
| You informed me when I was last in
Atlanta that you had ordered and paid for a large lot of 1 inch
plank at some station on the line of the Cent. R. R. of Ga. which
you could not take away for the want of transportation, and you
proposed turning over the lumber to me for the service of this
Armory. |
| As I am in want of such lumber just now,
please inform me if it is still your purpose to turn the lumber
referred to over to me, and if you do so, please furnish me with the
requisite authority to take away the lumber. |
| I have the honor to be |
| Colonel |
| Respectfully Your obedt. Servt. |
