Treason arrests and factional tensions dominate Lapeer county
Reports state two men were arrested by U S Marshal in Lapeer County and taken to Fort Lafayette on treason charges. One objected to his restraint as another was forced to comply, amid claims of disloyal letters to the South which never reached their intended recipients. A Mr Butler from Auburn is named among the prisoners. Local authorities fear further secessionist activity as investigators aim to identify County officials complicit. In Washington Gen McClellan faces accusations of directing the executive and legislative branches, fueling radical critiques of Fremont’s emancipation stance and the ongoing war policy.
