Hon. W. W. Holden,

Gov of N.C.

Dear Sir:

Your favor of the 20th. inst. detailing the unsettled and threatening condition of affairs of North Carolina, is just received, and I will telegraph to the Sec. of War immediately, to send more troops to the State without delay. They will be used to suppress violence and to maintain the laws, if other means should fail.

With great respect

Your ob'dt Serv'nt
