To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With reference to what can be found here, I have stated in my memorandum of December that the Navy had (or did have not long ago) four side-wheel steamers and the steamer "Stepping Stones" capable of carrying 3,500 men, and the quarter-master's department had two large steamers and some smaller ones capable ot carrying (as stated to me by Col. Rucker) 5,000 men, besides sev- eral large Schuylkill barges. I learn that there are, on the Chesa- peake and Ohio Canal, between here and Cumberland, fr...om 250 to 300 good canal boats, 90 feet long, 14| beam, and about feet depth; they will carry 150 to 200 men each.
During the present mild weather these boats could be got down the canal, and they would carry troops, but they are ill adapted to carrying horses. Besides these canal boats and vessels in employ of the Government, there is very little else to be found here now.
But it is impracticable to move large bodies of men, on vessels of this kind, past the enemy's batteries on the Potomac, and hence, troops could be moved from here only to points above such bat- teries.
