Abstract

This collection contains a telegraph sent from Captain R. A. Williams, A.C.S. [Acting Commissary of Subsistence], in Wytheville, Virginia, to Captain Isaac Shelby in Abingdon asking for advice about an order that required Williams to send four soldiers elsewhere. Williams notes that the order would take "four of my most indispensable men and if persisted in will paralyze my operations".
