Dear General Augur,
I enclose you the orders in reference to Indian prisoners and Indian ponies. I have held them back thinking that some more Indians would come in, but think it best to not wait any longer, unless you have some good reason to still delay. You will see that there is full authority for the Military Commission and if some of the Indians can be hung it will have a salutary Effect. I will be ready to designate the place of confinement on the seaboard by the time you have selected the prisoners to be confined. I presume the ponies are very poor, but as the main object is to deprive the Indians of them, the matter of what they will bring is of small consequence. The same instructions as these will be sent to Gen'l. Pope for the Cheyennes. They must be dealt with alike. Yours truly, Official (Sgd) J.H. Sheridan (underlined red) (Sgd) Colon Augur Lieut. General ADL 500 6 D T '74
