Sir 
I received this morning about ten o clock an order from you ordering me to report at once for duty. I have been anxious & willing ever since my arrival here to go to work, but it always seems as though it was impossible.
I hereby report to you in writing, and will report in person tomorrow morning early.
Very Respectfully
Your Obed Servt.
