Supt Bureau RF and AL 2d Dist Va

Sir
I have the honor to make the following report. On the 16th of February last the Freedmen's Court of this County tried the Case of Thomas Wall "Cold" vs Richard H Hayes "White" for Assault and Battery and Sentenced the Said Richard H Hayes "White" to pay the said Thomas Wall "Cold" the sum of $20.00 as compensation for injuries received 

Hayes has positively refused to pay the fine and Seems to bid defiance to the Authority of the Freedman's Court.
  
This was a verry Aggravated Case - Hayes broke Walls arm and otherwise injured him so that he was not able to work for several weeks.

Please instruct me how to proceed in this Case Hayes is Wealthy and able to pay the fine.

Verry Respectfully 
Your Obedient Servant 
Robert Cullen
Lieut Asst Supt
