Hd Qrs 2nd Mil Dist
Charleston S.C.

Captain

I have the honor to transmit herewith Charges and Specifications preferred against Horace James late Captain & A.Q.M. by Bvt Maj Genl Robert Avery Judge Advocate with the recommendation that the case may be referred to the General Court Martial which I am informed is now sitting in Charleston.  I understand that the Court convened in this City in November last has up to the present time disposed of only four cases and since the order adjourning the same sine-die, two of its members have left the City, consequently reducing it below the minimum.  I therefore respectfully request that Bvt Maj Genl Robt Avery Maj V.R.C. be relieved from duty as Judge Advocate, his entire services being required in the Bureau R.F. & A.L.

Very respectfully
Your Obdt Servt
