John C. Moore to William F. Weeks, June 6, 1864
Moore begins with a lengthy discussion of the accounts of W. F. Weeks & Co., and then shares his plans to go to Shreveport soon to “settle with C. S. officers for the hire & loss of slaves working on the Public Works.” While some of the officers he has found to be “intelligent,” others were “uncourteous … & paid no attention to private claims.” Moore had lost “two valuable men at Shreveport,” one of whom died in the hospital from the neglect of the surgeon.
