{"value"=>"Has already given his reasons to Col. Laumois for wishing to go to Charlestown; has heard that the people are in great fear of an attack, and as he is acquainted with the town thinks he might with a few chosen troops assist Gen. Muteney; if the enemy's vessels can come up the Ashley river they could gain two days before assistance could reach the town; proposes various measures; states that he and many of his men are suffering from fever; encloses an order on the Q. M. Gen. and commissary for continental stores. In a postscript states that the number of volunteers should not exceed 200 men."}
