Major, |

I am directed by Gen Gilmer to acknowledge your
communication of May the 11th in reference to the connection between the
C&S {Charleston & Savannah RR} and S. C.
Rail Roads and the success of the Turn Table. He now requests that after
a short time, say a week or ten days, you again notify him of the way in
which it works, and whether you think it quite successful. |

I am Major, very resp'y |
