St Augustine 30th Nov 1840
Colonel Twiggs
2d Dragoons
Esteemed Sir:
I a directed by the Mayor and Aldermen in Council
assembled to inform you that they have received your letter of the 8th November
1840, and that the whole matter alluded to in it, was referred to, and taken up
the Grand Jury.
The investigation by that Body has resulted in an
indictment against Moses a free black man; and the release from confinement of
Negroes George and Joe belonging to Mr. I M Hanson.
In returning thanks to you for your attention in
bringing to the notice of the authorities of this City anything by which the
Guilty may be found out; I beg leave to call to your recollection, that in all
the excursions of wild Cat the Chief actor was a Mulatto fellow of the name of
Joe Walles; he is of middle size, thick set, and stutters, and is a runaway
from Misquito county.
My dear Sir; the highest considerations of Justice
recommend that the said Mulatto fellow Joe Walles should be taken alive; have
him alive, and we shall know the Guilty in this and other places.
Wishing you success
I remain truly
your obt. Servt.
