Sir,
   In reply to your application for axes, I have to say, that if you can pay $28 per dozen for them, I can furnish you with axes of Panitentian make. If that is satisfactory, let me know & I will order them for you.
Very respect

P. S. I have just heard from Genl. T. J. Jackson, who informs me that the {Virginia} Central RR mechanics cannot be spared at this time from his command.
