U. S. Internal Revenue Collector’s Office, First District of Va., Richmond, January 20, 1866.
Sir: I have the honor to forward a report, which appears to me to be true, that a Mr. Waterhouse has just embarked to Liverpool, England, in order to dispose of eighty (80) steam vessels belonging to the so-called southern confederacy, which vessels are said to be lying in that port.
Being impelled by a sense of duty to give this information, that your action may be taken in the case,
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
WM. JAMES, Collector.
Hon. Hugh McCulloch, Secretary of the Treasury U. S.
