Exchange of prisoners amid cartel issues and delays
The Exchange question reappears as eight hundred prison ers are sent from Point St. to City Point under truce terms, with Butler recognized by the government. Richmond dispatches note some prisoners are treated as exchanged while others remain, under cartel rules. The plan seeks a 25 percent excess of our prisoners sent for each one received, and Judge Ould’s letter confirms Butler’s recognition remains unresolved.
