1861 May 3 Richmond, Va.

Quarter Master's Dept.

Genl. [John H.] Cocke,

Dr Sir
I desire to purchase, what
oats, & hay, you may have on hand, for
the use of the Volunteer forces of Virginia.
If you have any straw, it would be a
great favor to the service, if you could
have it baled, and sent down as our
troops will suffer for that article.
W J wood
