Montgomery Ala Jany 17th 1866 Col: Do me the favor to submit the enclosed affidavits in reference to the two Jefferies to Gen. Swayne; he stated to me on yesterday that he would consider them or any other papers we might submit in determining what disposition he would make of their case.

Transcription Notes:
surname "Troy" or "Tray"? IT IS "TROY" - 1860 Census - "D.S. TROY - Lawyer."
I think "Troy." Writer makes lowercase "o" similar to lowercase "a."
See previous document = Tray
