Abstract:
Letter 3 of 3, page 46: William Bosson (1806-1887) presumably wrote George Henry Thomas a letter about a Murfreesboro riot and the spread of the "the Secret Society of the Ku Klux." Thomas is not authorized to aid civil authorities with troops. He assures Bosson that Bosson's letters and those of others in Tennessee about the conduct of the Ku Klux have been sent to the "General Command of the Army." Thomas writes that he will act if he is instructed to by the General.
