Southern Historical Society Papers, Volume 17. (ed. Reverend J. William Jones), A list of Confederate officers, prisoners, who were held by Federal authority on Morris Island, S. C. , under Confederate fire from September 7th October 21st , 1864

Counterfeiting
--The negro Robert Jones, slave of John C. Allen, who attempted to pass a $20 Treasury note with forged signatures, at the store of Wm. Thalheimer, two or three days ago, was examined yesterday before Commissioner Watson, and remanded for trial at the next regular term of the Confederate States Circuit Court.
It appears that Wm. Flegheimer, a clerk in the Treasury Department, was present when the note was offered, and seeing at once that the signatures were not genuine, detained the note and gave information which led to the arrest.
The negro gave a bungling account of the manner in which he obtained it, telling several stories which proved to be falsehoods.
The note was undoubtedly stolen, either from the lithographic establishment or the Department, and signed by some person of no great pretensions to good chirography.
Discharged
--John A. Fulcher, arraigned on Saturday last on the charge of buying turkeys to sell again at his store, in the neighborhood of the Second Market, and the decision of whose case was deferred by the Mayor for further consideration, was yesterday dismissed of any violation of law, and directed to take possession of the fowls, which were held by Mr. Tyler, the Clerk of the market.
The charge against Dandridge, slave of G. A. Smith, of stealing a shawl and bonnet from a negro in the employ of Mrs. John C. Allen, was not sustained before His Honor yesterday morning, and he was accordingly discharged.
Sam, slave of John B. Carter, was discharged from any dishonest conduct in the possession of a pair of pants and overcoat which had excited the suspicions of one of the Mayor's officers, and thereby caused his arrest.
