ddon, I had no authority to do so. It is hoped but little time will be required to prepare the force now under your command, as the season is at hand, and the time seems propitious. Such additional forces will be ordered to you as the exigencies of the service elsewhere will permit, and it is hoped your own efforts will secure many absentees and extra-duty men to the ranks.

Prompt measures should be taken by you, however, to supply the want, whatever it may be. The part of your letter relative to this and field transportation will be referred to the Quartermaster-General. Colonel Alexander, applied for by you, as chief of artillery, is deemed necessary by General Lee, in his present position. Brigadier-General W. N. Pendleton, an experienced officer
