Brig.-Gen. AVERELL:

CHAMBERSBURG,

July 29, 1864.

A courier has just arrived at Greencastle for an engine for you. He has no written order, consequently the engine cannot be sent. I have ordered the man under arrest. Please inform me by the bearer what the movements of the enemy are as far as you know.

D. N. COUCH,
Maj.-Gen.
