Lt D. S. Babbitt
Ordnance Depot
Louisville Ky.
Lieutenant.

Your communication of the 10th inst to His Excellency Govr Bramlette, has been referred to this office for reply. His Excellency will heartily cooperate with you in carrying out your instructions, and you will be duly notified of the organization of troops as soon as reported to these Hd Qrs The different places of rendezvous mentioned in General Orders No 3 from these Hd qrs (copy herein enclosed) are all Military posts which will doubtless be of material assistance, in this distribution of ordnance. The circular you have had printed if sent to me, will be promptly issued to those organizing companies. As we have had no report of full organizations yet, His Excellency thinks a personal interview unnecessary at present.

Very Respectfully
John Boyle
Ad Genl of Ky
