Col. F. W. Sims
Chief of Rail Road Bureau
 
Dear Sir,
   This Company is anxious to obtain the services of Mr. S. H. Colson as a watchman. He is a wounded Soldier and is unfit for field service and as it is the policy of the Govt to put in such men to the exclusion of healthy ones we hope this will meet with a favorable consideration. Mr. Colson is a member of Co. I. 3d Georgia Regt, Wrights Brigade, Andersons Division.
Yours Truly
E. H. Gill, Supt
