Prof. Joseph Jones, M. D., Surgeon-General United Confederate Veterans, 156 Washington avenue, New Orleans, La.:
dear Sir—Your communication of the 17th inst., headed official business, addressed to His Excellency, W. J, Northen, governor of Georgia, has been placed upon my desk. I at once called upon the governor, and informed him that while much of the information desired in your communication might be obtained by careful research, there was no clerical help in my office, and it was just impossible for me to furnish it. The governor desires me to communicate to you the above information. Regretting that he can not furnish you with the information requested.

With sincere regard, your obedient servant,

John McIntosh Kell, Adjutant-Inspector-General.
