" The Commissioner deprecates the use of any
offensive expressions in the letters and reports

simple statement of facts. All acts of violence
where freedmen are concerned, made known
by the courts or otherwise, should always be
carefully recorded and reported, whether the
guilty parties are white or black; but angry
debates and imprudent speeches must be avoid

which was the main canse of bringing on THEN

. Those who invested their capital in the crea-
ton Of this debt must meet their fate and take
it as one of the inevitable results of the rebel
