"Send the families of [Simon B.] Buckner, [Roger W.] Hanson & Madrid back to Columbus. They should not have been received without my orders. I can't ascertain where the parties named have been sent. When they are properly disposed of, it will be time enough to decide about their families joining them. The question of the disposition of these prisoners of war is not [yet] decided at Washington. Wait for orders."
