Excerpt:
"We have the honor to report the result of our expedition on yesterday against the notorious bushwhacker William T Anderson near Albany, in the South west corner of this county (Ray).
We captured on Anderson private papers and orders from General Orice that identify him beyond a doubt"

Sincerely,
Fran Bolton
