I was not present at the trial, being in Floyd Co on Official business at the time

I have acted upon one case as Military Commissioner during the past month

A Freedman having some words with a white man was struck by him and made complaint to the Civil Authorities

The white man was brought before the Grand Jury, which refused to indict him. I had the white man arrested and brought before me and finding the case a trivial one I discharged it upon his paying the costs.

Very Respectfully
Your Obt Servt
