General Leonard Wood,
Southeastern Department of the Army,
Charleston, S. C.

North Carolina has three or more ideal sites for the cantonments to be established for the new army. I will be glad to have these shown to any officers you may designate and to co-operate with you in every way possible to secure desirable locations. I earnestly hope a number of these cantonments will be located in this State.

T. W. Bickett,
Governor.

Charge to Executive Dept. N. C.
