allowed to retain them in the held, the Secretary of War directs me
to reply in the negative, as great inconvenience has resulted from
promises heretofore given in other cases to furnish companies of
troops with special arms. If you choose to arm and .equip a whole
regiment at your own expense, or the regiment chooses to arm itself,
it will be accepted with the condition that it shall be at liberty to use
its own arms and equipments exclusively.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
P. H. WATSON,
Assistant Secretary of War.
