He wanted to go before the commissioner and make another complaint and the only way I could stop him was to tell him I was going to Muscogee today…I have promised him the warrant would be here…and I would have Rush here Monday afternoon. I told him I had the warrant approved by the U.S. Attorney…If the warrant is not here…I think he will make a new complaint. He says this is a very important case and the Postal Department has instructed him to stay here…[I] would like to make the arrest Monday morning at Stroud…" Folds, else very good.
