Office C.S.
Montgomery Ala
June 20/66

General
Upon inspection of the Flour, lately sent from Mobile. I find fully 6/7th of it sour and mostly some so bad that it is unfit for issue.
Such as is only partially damaged is being issued as it is the only bread stuffs on hand, excepting the corn meal purchased this month in Montgomery.
As there will - undoubtedly - be complaints of the quality of the flour. I make this statement so that you may know the real reasons for issuing such stores. 

Very Respectfully
Your Obt Servant
W.C. Arthur
Capt and C.S. Vols
