| Dear Sir, |
| Every car at this time is engaged
bringing prisoners from Camp
Lawton. The very instant I can command cars I will place a train at No. 13
for Government stores, and I will give directions immediately
thereafter to bring down the stores at Millen. Our road is not
injured as yet from Gordon down. I received the following from Augusta, from our operator at Gordon, written yesterday: |
| The
lumber train was captured at Griswoldville and burned to-day.
Negroes all safe. Destroyed the machine shops and foundry and
Georgia Chemical Works. Road burned at Griswoldville. |
| Very respectfully, your obedient servant, |
| R. Cuyler |
| President |
