220 May 5th 4 Maj. W. H. Sidell U. S. A. A. A. Pro. Mar. General Louisville- Ky. Major,

Your telegram of this date to the Governor, has been referred to this office. You will see by the copy of General orders No 3- enclosed herewith- what points have been selected at which the Six months troops will rendezvous. The number that may congregate at each, would be difficult to approximate -- but as all the points are military posts, there will likely be little trouble to supply them.

The announcement in the daily papers, of the draft in a few days will materially retard our enlistments.

Respectfully Your obt. Serv't John Boyle Adjt. Gen of Ky.
