Sinopsis

This book chronicles the proceedings and outcome of an official Court of Inquiry held at the request of Captain T. E. Hall to investigate charges of malfeasance and gross neglect of duty during his service as Quartermaster in Aquia Creek, Virginia. The inquiry unearthed evidence of Hall's alleged misconduct, including permitting sutlers to illegally transport private property at government expense and using military resources to advance his brother's sutler business. The detailed testimony presented in this record offers a revealing glimpse into the challenges and controversies surrounding the Union Army's supply chain during the Civil War.

Excerpt from Proceedings of a Court of Inquiry: Convened at Aquia Landing, March 13th, 1863, to Examine Into Certain Changes Preferred Against Captain T. E. Hall, Assistant Quartermaster

It is scarce necessary to apologize for publishing the pro ceedings of the Court of Inquiry in my case. It is an act of self-defence. I have a right - nay more, it is my duty to vindicate myself before my friends and the public, by acquainting them with the origin and history of the charges preferred against me, with the circumstances under which they were made, and the means employed to sustain them. The Court of Inquiry has pronounced its emphatic verdict of acquittal, and now I lay the results of its examination before the higher tribunal of the public, with the fullest confidence that that verdict will be sustained.
