abstract
{"value"=>"Has just been told by Capt. Nash from over the ferry that no one is working on the causeway, which is in bad condition; has therefore stopped to collect hands to repair it; takes the blame of his son's leaving on himself; had told Col. Thomson of his orders, and as the line was weakened by desertions from the militia and Gen. Williamson had orders to supply their places, supposed they would be formed into two brigades, and that his son would not be needed; would send him back to camp, but as he understands the papers, hopes he may be spared."}
