``Cypher''
Major General Curtis Washington,
St. Louis, Mo. Nov. 30. 1862

Frank Blair wants Manter's 32nd. Curley's 27th. Boyd's 24th. and the 9th. & 10th. Cavalry, to go with him down the river. I understand it is with you to decide whether he shall have them; and if so, and if also it is consistent with the public service, you will oblige me a good deal by letting him have them.

A. LINCOLN
