Dear Sir,
   This will be handed you by Mr. W. H. McDowell traveling Agt of the Arsenal for the purchases of materials. I am just about to send him off for coal & have borrowed from Central {(of Georgia)} Rail Road four cars for the purpose. Can I get any from you. Mr McD will show you the authority for taking C. R. R. cars wherever I can find them. As it might be an advantage to you to get the cars belonging to your road back to Macon I trust you will think it advisable to give us the ??? authority.
   M. McDowell will not let the cars go out of his sight.
   If there is a possibility of allowing the first of the cars at least to come by passenger train it will be a great accommodation to me.
Very Respy & truly
Rich M Cuyler
Capt Arty & Ordnance
