in your policy. Please write me on the subject at your earliest con-
venience.

other arrangements have been effected to admit of its being done.

here has been mustered out. Captain Lindsay thinks he can reorgan-
ize it. The detachment of that company left at Mineral Point will be
placed in charge of Lieutenant Moran, of Company E, Fiftieth Missouri

receive them in due time.
