Nov. 20, 1871. Hon C. B. Cole, James Jackson, and others, Macon, Georgia. Gentlemen: I have received your memorial on the subject of the location of the new District or Circuit Court for the middle District of Georgia, should one be created. I will bear in mind your suggestions, and will see that they are presented to Members of Congress who would take an interest in the matter. I will say, however, that I regard the establishment of a new District as at present very doubtful. Very respectfully, Amos T. Akerman, Attorney General.
New Judicial Dist. in Geo.
