Friend Kinsman

I am desirous of knowing of the order has been issued requiring Capt. Peck to report here for duty.

I telegraphed you yesterday that I was awaiting orders to complete my business here. I have written the General two letters on the [[strikethrough]] School [[/strikethrough]] Colony and Hospital arrangements necessary for this post. I am now waiting his decision and orders on the case. 

The business for which I come here, would not be complete without some arrangement more permeant than that here now being consumated to at least, inaugurated.

[[strikethrough]] Dr. [[/strikethrough]] I would like to get back as soon as possible.

Yours Respty
W.C. Arthur
