Sir. 
I have along [a long]  time endeavored to procure the honor to wait [added text: on ]  you and expected to have had the satisfaction this time (in company with Col= Milton) [to go down to Savanah] But the conduct of the Indiens has made the [added text:  [deleted text:  [illegible text]  ]  ]  commander in Chief to countermand his permision [permission] ;  
I am now ordered to cause Blockhouses to be erected in the Middle Division agreeable to the spirit of a Conference with the honorable Major Genl= [General]  Twiggs for that purpose; and on long Bluff will be one.  
Col= Milton you know is my Freind [Friend]  (and all are convinced that he is a good man) he will likely tell you what I wish you in every sense to know and perhaps shew you some Ideas commited [committed]  to paper.  
 
I have the honor to be with due observance your most Obdt. [Obedient]  
[Signed] Augustus C. Geo Elholm
