82 Head Quarter District of Ala. Montgomery Ala June 6" 67. Extract West Point Ga June 3d 67 Swayne Maj. Genl. Sir While writing on the above allow me to ask your opinion on one subject. Will Confederate transactions be countenanced, or will those who contracted debts during the rebellion in confederate money be compelled to pay them. There are many good industrious hard-working men that are discouraged in the prosecution of their labors from the fact that a large confederate claim hangs over them, under which they cannot rise, but if they had an assurance that the law would not embrace the collection thereof, would feel perfectly free and easy, and the liquidation of all such claims public or private by one blow from your administration would do good. Very Truly Yours (Sg'd) James M. Hill Agent. 174 Head Quarters Dist of Alabama Montgomery Ala June 6" 67 /152 Greene Bvt Maj. S.C. A.A.A. Genl Dist of Ala Respectfully referred to.
