SAINT LOUIS DISTRICT, April 11, 1863.
Colonel SMART, Patterson, Mo.:
Put pickets, of at least one company each, at Greenwood Valley and Reeves' Station watching the crossing of the Black River between these points. Let them be in daily communication with you. Be vigilant where you are. Send good spies to Pitman's Ferry and Doniphan.
DAVIDSON,
Brigadier-General.
