Richd. C. Drum to George F. Price, June 18, 1862

HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE PACIFIC,

Capt. GEORGE F. PRICE, Second Cavalry Califorma Volunteers : (Through Commanding Officer Fort Churchill.)

SIR: The general commanding the department directs that you will move with your company to Fort Churchill and report to the commanding officer thereof for duty at that post. The demand for troops in this department will not permit of the establishment at present of a post at Susanville. The matter, however, will be considered at a future day. Your report of the march to Honey Lake has been read with much interest, and is very satistactory.

Very respectfully, your obedient servant,

RICHD. C. DRUM,
Assistant Adjutant-General.
