| General Johnston desires, simply in
accordance with General Lee's request, to urge you to remove army
supplies from Eastern North Carolina with all possible rapidity.
Transport supplies from Raleigh to Greensborough only so fast as
they can be carried on from Greensborough. This will give you
additional trains in Eastern North Carolina. You will be notified
when it is necessary to remove rolling-stock from Eastern North
Carolina. |
