from Gen Sheridan and Angus - Capt. Carlton and ((Wills?)) Companies arrived this morning. I sent out a detachment in the morning and will commence work at once along the lines of the R.R. and in the Cherokee, Creek- and Choctaw County - from indications received am satisfied I will be detained here for some time to come - and that my Head Quarters will have to be at this point - So soon as I get things in ship shape - if my Head Quarters are moved here and this Territory made a District again - I will arrange matters so as to go for you and the children as soon as possible --
