Gen Swayne

Sir [[stamp]]The National Archives of the United States [[/stamp]]
The matter of the execution of Grant Robinson and Richardson approaches on 30th Inst. Cannot something be done for them?

There is doubt of their identity [[?]] and according to the present information ~ only two of three men are guilty. Bob Smith and Frank are the principles and only four 4 men were concerned in the transaction.

The arguments are exhausted I hope to hear from tomorrow.

Respectfully
Your obt servt
S.S. Houston
