Thomas H. Talbot, Esq,
Assistant Attorney General.
Sir:
After consideration of the case of Rebecca A. G. Minor, Executrix of William J. Minor, deceased, which is the subject of your letter of the 22d ultimo, I think that it is not worth while to take or prosecute an appeal therein.
Very respectfully, &c.
B. H. Bristow, Solicitor Gen'l,
& Acting Attorney Gen'l.
