Respty to Genl. O. Brown A.C. for information.
This horse in question is branded U.S. and was picked up by the "son" after the surrender
As the animal has been in possession of and fed and cared for by Mr. A. White ever since it was found, this office is at a loss to determine under orders pertaining to U.S. horses to whom it belongs. Since neither the white man nor freedman has any legal claim to this horse to whom shall the order to retain possession be given.
