            Your communication of the 2^nd is just received as is the roll of blanks by Express.

 

            There are on our registers the names of 5090 Confederates who were in the various hospitals about this place. I will have them copied and sent to you as soon as we get time, which will not be before next week as the Muster and Pay rolls of over 1500 [?]  in this Hospital which will take 48 blanks containing over 1500 names must be made out first.

                                                                                   

Respectfully
