6th From the endorsement of Dr Palmer in charge of Freedmens Hospital at Gordonsville Va of date Aug 20th /66 it appears that Jane Twyman (Col'd) was admitted to Hospital June 25th /66 - and died Aug 1st /66 for further information in reference to the Dr's opinion &c I refer you to his endorsement, herewith enclosed, under date already cited.

7th The man Geo. P. Perry is now living with his mother & sister "Ella" (who has I believe married the man Mr John Royster mentioned in the statment of Jane Twyman) 8 miles from this place on the Sperryville Pike.  

8th I can get no further evidence in this case in reference to the part Geo P Perry took in the matter than is herewith enclosed, & contained in the statments of the (Col'd) Girl Jane & Andrew J Yeates  & Jacob Shanks  

I learn from good authority that the man Geo. P. Perry is a very dissipated man, & that he invariably gets drunk every time he visits town.

I respectfully state that no further information can be gained by me, in this case, & that I have made every effort [[strikethrough]] within [[/strikethrough]] in my power to give the case as clear a report
