Colonel

            Your report of the 28^th received. You deserve thanks for your promptness and vigilance. I very cheerfully award it to you. Secure the corn and get it into your camp if you have to raft it over the river. The Adjutant informs me that he is entirely out of Field and Staff Muster Rolls.

 

                                                                                                Very Respectfully

                                                                                                James J Morgan
