General S. Cooper
Adjutant and Inspector General
 
   I am shipping stores from this post as fast as I can get the transportation for them {on the North Carolina RR}. Unless the enemy is checked much stores will be lost at this post. The prisoners at Salisbury should be marched at once to Greensborough. The Federal officers at this post I am sending to Greensborough on the passenger trains, stopping all private travel.
