| Major, |
| The major-general commanding directs
that you take measures as promptly as practicable to concentrate
enough railroad transportation in telegraphic reach to move a
brigade of infantry from Baldwin to any point on the Florida
Railroad where their services may be needed. As the concentration of
the rolling-stock at any one point would interfere with the supply
of the troops, you are instructed to make your arrangements with the
view of being able to move the troops promptly, and interfering as
little as possible with the transportation of supplies.
