Belleville, Ill.

Sir:

In reply to your application of the 15th inst. the Attorney General directs me to say that he has no copies of "Laws of Congress" for general distribution. It is probable that the nearest reputable Law Book seller may fill your order.

Very respectfully,

M. F. Pleasants,

Chief Clerk.
