To Virginia Soldiers |
The soldiers in the field from Virginia
can have provisions sent them FREE OF CHARGE by the Southern Express
Company. |
Packages should be plainly marked with the
name of the soldier, Company, Regiment and Brigade, care of Captain P.
H. Mayo, A. Q. M., Richmond, Va., who will see that they are sent to
the proper command. |
The agreement made with the Southern
Express Company February 20th, 1864, still continues in force, and the
friends of soldiers in other States will mark their packages, as
formerly, to the care of their respective Associations. |
