Vicksburg, Oct 25" 1865.

By Telegraph from Natchez
To Col. S. Thomas

I resply suggest that no officer be withdrawn. let the citizens show their hand. my officers are willing to remain and see the thing out. The sub. com. at Woodville has been ordered to leave. I telegraphed him to stay. there is no truth in the report about our regiment going out of service nor about Capt. Preck.
