NP, AC 8/30/1864

From the Augusta Constitutionalist
 
August 30, 1864
 
Fortifying
   In view of the numerous raids to which the Macon & Western railroad has recently been subjected by raiding parties of the enemy, the military authorities here are erecting fortifications, and call for hands from the citizens to push the work to speedy completion. Our worthy and patriotic Mayor, is undertaking to get these hands by patriotic appeals, which ought to be sufficient in a crisis like this. We trust it will not be necessary to resort to impressments. Let every man patriotically and voluntarily send up his hands to the Mayor's Office, who offers every guaranty in his power that justice will be done them, and that they will be well taken care of.
Rebel, 24th.
