F. M. Haren.
Camp Nelson Ky.
Sir

Your letter of the 6th inst to the Governor has been referred to me for reply. We have no authority to detail an enlisted man to recruit, but if you can obtain the furlough you speak of, this letter will be sufficient authority for you to proceed at once to recruit a company under the call for 10.000 six months troops. As the time for ^raising^ them is limited it is necessary that you act promptly and immediately.

Very Respectfully
John Boyle
Adjt Genl of Ky.
