D. T. Corbin, Esq.
U. S. Attorney,
Columbia, S. C.
Sir:
Your letter of the 19th enclosing the list of persons arrested, and placed in custody at Yorkville, has been received.
I thank you for your promptness in forwarding this.
I suppose that these are the only persons arrested in South Carolina by the military without warrant? Am I right?
Very respectfully,
A. T. Akerman,
Attorney General.
