Major
In reference to the case of the indigent blacks by the civil authorities I have the honor to state that I am anxious to receive at as early a day as possible, the order of transfer called for in General Order 50 Par 3. C S from the office of the Commanding General in order to give the Overseers of the poor in this city Prince George and Dinwiddie an opportunity to make arrangements for the care of these people, before Oct 1st, else they will suffer as I have drawn no rations for them since August.

Very respectfully
Your obt svt
