Captain
Your communication of the 21st inst stating that you had sent back the guard ordered to report to you and asking when a guard would be sent to you is received. and I am directed by the Asst Com'r to say that he is at a loss to know why you sent them away from Thomasville, that he had ordered them, and he is also at a loss why, when you send one guard away you should at once apply for another. Probably a guard will be sent you.

Respectfully
You Obt Servant
