Representative Ray discusses the court-martial of General Fitz-John Porter. In conclusion, writes "In the name of justice, for the honor of our country, and in behalf of the thousands of soldiers who appeal to us for justice to their old comrade in arms, and whose confidence in his integrity, loyalty, and devotion has never been shaken, I ask for that most righteous verdict in this case which will have been rendered when this bill becomes a law."
