"Private" Gordonsville May 17, 1866 Genl Brown I have made inquiry into the state of affairs of Charlottesville during the time Generals Fullerton & Steadman were there. I do not learn that the Asst Supt was intoxicated then. He may have been. He has however, since that time been on a spree. I would like to give him a longer trial. I do not think he will again offend in this way. He is a capable officer. I know of nothing prejudicial to him except what I have written I send this private report of the case for your information so that if you desire to take any action in the case you may do so with a knowledge of the facts. But I would recommend leniency in this case, believing it will be appreciated and that Lieut Joyes will not [[strikethrough]] need [[/strikethrough]] merit report hereafter T. Frank P Crandon
