War of the Rebellion: Serial 099 Page 0033 Chapter LIX. CORRESPONDENCE, ETC. -UNION.


GENERAL: I feel surprised, after the precautions that have been taken by yourself and officers, to find that many depredations have been committed near this place, and certain things done that would disgrace us even in the enemy's country, e. g., the robbing of some negroes and abusing their women. Please ascertain, if possible, approximately, the amount of damage wantonly committed on the island, and have it assessed on the brigade or regiment guilty.

Respectfully,

O. O. HOWARD,

Major-General.
