Major In compliance with your communication of the 1st inst. I forward herewith a list of Murders, murderous assaults and outrages upon Freedmen committed since January 1st 1866, that have been brought to my knowledge. There have been many assaults that I have not mentioned for the reason that I have not the names of the parties nor the dates of the assaults, as well as very many that go before the city courts here that I hear nothing of. I have the honor to be Very Respectfully Yr. Obt. Servant Geo. Shorkley 1st Lieut 15th Infantry Superintendent.
