Account record for Col. A. J. Mackay in Murfreesboro from the Quartermaster General's Office, 1863
The two items in the Colonel Andrew J. Mackay Papers, 1863, demonstrate the type of paperwork received through the quartermaster's office.
In account record pages from February 1863, officials maintained a list of expenses paid as well as notes on property and vouchers received or not received.
The second item, a letter from Captain C. K. Smith dated December 15, 1863, describes the opening of a new coal mine in the Kelly's Landing area. Additionally, Smith tells Mackay that "none of the articles you promised the Superintendent should be forwarded have yet to come to hand," and he complains of "the want of Lumber, Oil, Tools &c., a list of which he furnished you some time ago."
