Copying an urgent telegram from General Beauregard. "If two thousand (2000) or three thousand (3000) small arms called for by my Chief of Ordnance from Col. Gorgas be not furnished I must disband several six months regiments lately called out." Bonham notes that earlier "I gave notice I could not arm them" and was told by Gorgas in July and September "that arms would be provided."
