House of Representatives review of the case against General Benjamin Butler, who captured $50,000 from the mint in New Orleans while in command there in 1862. His problem was that he never turned it into the Treasury Department as required, instead using the money to pay his troops. Thus the review by The House and Judge Edwards Pierrepont, the man who, as a lawyer would prosecute the case against the accused assassins of Abraham Lincoln. the 27 page, 5"x 8" softcover booklet is in good condition.
