I certify upon honor that at the time of
the approach of the Enemy during the month of February 1864, there
was at this Post, for which I was responsible to the Confederate
States to the best of my belief and knowledge about the Quantity of
fifteen thousand Bushels Corn {100 car loads}
and thirty four thousand feet of Lumber
{8 car loads}, which I had no means of transporting away
{on the Mobile & Ohio RR}, and that
this property was necessarily abandoned for the reason above
specified and that it fell into the hands of the Enemy and was by
them used, squandered and destroyed. No part of the same having ever
come into my hands again. |
