Talladega Ala
October 28th 1866

Maj. O.D. Kinsman
Supt Bureau
Montgomery Ala

Sir
In reply 
to your letter of October 22nd (received last night) I would state that I have ordered A. Von Poyck to report immediately in person at the office Assistant Comm'r at Montgomery Ala.
There has been nothing developed so far which in my opinion would justify placing him in close confinement.
His stay here has been productive of a good deal of trouble from his going around and posting the parties up, to deny all transactions with Maj. Thune
I am Very Respectfully
W.A. Arthur
