| Sir, |
| I respectfully submit that the detention
of the cars of the Central Rail road Company at Gordonsville, occasions
great inconvenience and embarrassment to the Quarter Master Department
and interferes, materially, with the transportation of troops and
supplies. |
| I request, therefore, in view of the
demands of the public interest, that a sufficient number of the cars,
belonging to that company be transferred to Richmond, as soon as it
can possibly be done. |
