I make no merit of the sacrifices I have <hr /> made in entering the military service. Duty required it and that is enough; but in entering the service I expected to be enabled to make my service valuable to my country and honorable to my state, and those who have cast their lots with me in the field of danger. I cannot do it without I am armed. My reliance, as you know, has been largely upon you, whom I have cordially and uniformly sustained in the discharge of your responsible duties from the first. I still rely upon you and with a confidence that all just expectations will be realized. Send me arms. Send me four thousand stands of the Eufield rifle, which I understand have been or will be sent to you. It may be that I have some claim upon these same arms as I was, probably, instrumental, directly or indirectly, in causing them to be sent. Send me arms and come down and see us, and we will give you a hearty reception.
