Reed, Govera- ment Detective. Washisgt 'N, D. C., July 3, 1868. Personally appeared before me, a Justice of the Peace for the District of Colombia, Win H. Reed, who, being duly sworn, de n.isetb and sayeth: I was telegraphed to by H. C. Whitley, a Government detective, to come to Washing ton from Boston, Mass. In answer to that dispatch I arrived in Washington on the 6tt. ot March, 1868. I joined H. C. Whitley;. hc> to:>k me to Cnipman & Hosmer’s office, ot Fourteenth street, and they told mo they wanted to employ me as United States Gov ernment detective in the impeachment of tie President ot the United Stales. Hosmei took me ap stairs in tne same buildiDg where his offici was, to a one-legged man’s room, whom they called Doctor. Hosmer to'.d me to go around to tne hotels, and make my report every day to the Doctor.: In a faw days Hosmer sent me to General O. O. Howard, commanding Preedmen’s Bureau. He, the General, told me to make my report to al-jor Mann. I did so with several other detectives, including a number of negroes, the Uthoriotb of April, and was paid by the Doctor and Major Maun three hundred dollars. Gen. 0. 0. Howard then ordered! me to go to Atlaota, Georgia, and report to Gen. Meade, to work up the Ashbnrn murder case. He (Gen. Howard) says you go there by order or Gen. Grant. He (Howard) sent me to Major Mann, who paid me one hundred dollars. Gen. Howard gave me a letter to General Meade in Atlanta, Georgia, in which he stated that I came as Govern ment detective, and be (Gen. Meade) to pay my expenses. I arrived there about the 18th of April. Gen. Meade referred me to Major Smythe, that he (Smythe) knew about the Ashburn murder case. Before I arrived in Atlanta there had been several ar rests made in Columbus, Georgia, and Major Sinytbe informed me that he had^discharged them for the want of evidence to implicate them with the murder of Ashburn. He told mu 1 could not make anything by going to Columbus, but hoped I could make up a case. Gen. Meade ordered me to go to Columbus. I staid there two or three weeks. In this time I teIt it was necessary for me to arrest several limies—H. C. Whitley having been sent for by General Meade at my request. Gen eral Meade desired I should not make any arrests until ths arrival of Whitley.:— General Meade telegraphed to Washing ton, to liavo the Government telegraph to Whitley, who was then In Kansas, for him te come immediately to Georgia. He ar rived in a few-days. Whitley came to Co- iHtnbas and met me. We had an interview with Captain Mills, the comm inder of the port at Columbus, Ga., and recommended him to make several arrests, which he de r clined to do without au order from General Meade. Whitley got an order trom General Meade that Captain Mills shonld arrest five or six parlies, to be pointed out by myaejjf and Whitley, and" they ’were "to' be sent To Fort Pulaski. We, before the arrests were made, went to Atlanta and got an order from General Meade to the commander pf ths post at Savannah to give us, myself ana Whitley, fall control of the prisoners- after they arrived at Fort Pulaski. While we were on our way to the fort, the following arrests were made at Columbus, • Ga. Ste vens and Birber, two white men. and John Stapler and John Wells, two negroes, and sent to Fort Pulaski. W met them (the prisoners) at Savannah, and procte led to the fort with them. At the fort one of the negroes, John Wells, was taken out of bis cell and put into a chair m one of the casements, with a cannon pointed at bis bead, aDd a soldier hold of the Bttwg, ready to snap the cap, apparently: to shoot the gun. a barber lushed bis head lull of lather and pretended to be ready to shave his head. This was done to have him give evidence in regard to killing Ashburn, the negro all the time contending he knew nothing about the murder. This farce was kept up about ten minutes; finally they put min back in his cell, with the understanding if he did not tell something, it would be worse for him. They took the other negro, •ohn Stapler, and put him before ttifi gun, With no better success; he was afterward put in the sweat-box and kept there in great pun- . jshment for at least thirty hours, until bjs tegs swelled, and I teok him oat of the box, being convinced that he knew nothing about theea«e. At Whitley’s and my request’tUe Mliowing other arrests were made : Daniel Hells and Amanda Patterson, who were sent to Fort Pulaski. Stevens and Barber were Pot in one cell. Whitley and myself se creted ourselves in the adjoining cell, but we conld bear no conversation between them implicating any of the prisoners. Amanda Patterson was considered an important vitaess, and was put in officers’ qnac- mn. Whitley and myself talked with her frequently in regard to the murder, but 6be earnestly declared that she knew nous of the parties, all of them being mmsked and painted. She acknowledged peuig in the house at the time of the shooi ng- Whitley persevered io questioning said Amanda, and said to me that he would, in time get enough evidence out of her to im plicate some of the prisoners and other par- hes, so as to give Whitley an opportunity *° ® 6ll e more arrests. Whitley then went w Columbus and arrested other parties. A man was arrested named Bennett and sent to Fort Pulaski to see if D could not , w some evidence from him in regard n»ti 6 mar ^ er - In my frequent conver sion with this man Bennett his, pre- varicition convinced me if any one was guuty of the killing of Ashburn this man Ben in iu aa .2 a ‘lty- After this Bennett was .pat j be.celi with Belts to see if he could not he M5 80me evidence from him.

For these reasons no Digests were sent out. DigeBta are ready and can be fur nished to the Receivers at any moment. Tb Digests for the Wijd Land Returns have mot bean made, owing to a doubt as' to.the in- tention of tfie Legislature, but they can be made at very abort notice. I have the honor to suggest a ebaoge in these digesis, .which I think will prevent much vexation and trouble.in this office, and secure to property holders their property without its beiug sub ject to the chance of sale tor taxes as it is now, viz: That when, property located in one county is returned on tho Digest of another county, the Tax Receiver of the county in which , tbe property is. returned should be required by law to furnish the Tax Receiver of the county in which, the property, is located with a certificate setting foitn the tact of its return. Bomesncb'law as this, will enable each Gonntv Receiver to show by his.retnrn that all of the property io his county ia returned and exactly where it is returned. ... <: , roil) nil The want .of such a law has-caused much trouble in,this cfflre, and.in several;instances land has been advertised for sale ior. laxei jwhen it; was properly returned and tbe tax paid in other counties.
