Bureau of Yards & Docks
10th September 1858

Captain,
The contractor for stone at Fort Norfolk says he made his bid to deliver the stone, but according to usage heretofore, did not include the hauling.
You will therefore require him to deliver the stone on the landing and furnish all his own facilities and labor for the same. From thence the stone will be taken by the government.

Respectfully,
yr obt svt,
Jos Smith

Captain T. A. Dornin
Norfolk
