AbstractComplains about improprieties regarding a captain who is to be tried, mentions that the officers of the Pennsylvania Line at Carlisle, [Pa.] "are very assiduous' in supporting the captain whether right or wrong," and points out that if something is not done, Lincoln will be troubled with petitions from all the British officers who are prisoners of war; complains that assistant commissaries of prisoners think themselves independent of Hazen, points out that prisoners are allowed to work in the country and that some have escaped, and remarks: "In short the country is full of prisoners of war and Convention Troops."
