Montgomery June 14 1867

Col O.D. Kinsman:

Sir:

I notice in the Sentinel of this evening, a statement that a colonel register has just been killed in Hale County. It is reported that the murder has fled. If so I am anxious to offer a reward for his arrest. Please have the kindness to inform me what your information is upon the subject. 

Very respectfully
Your obedient servant

RM Patton
Governor of Alabama
