Ledger-Enquirer September 6, 1866
Mr. Safford, 
Again,
The latest issue from the brain of this newly fledge Radical to-wit his radical 
pamphlet is nothing more nor less than an acknowledgement of his own perfidy and 
if anything could arouse so honorable an emotion in the breasts of his present 
associates would incite a feeling of contempt on their part for this undoubtedly 
miserable and abandoned man. 
That he held Confederate office he does not attempt to deny save by coupling 
with it a qualifying clause that would relieve any confederate mean enough so to 
make so base a confession as that he served one government while secretly 
favoring another. 
Among his more corded exploits in behalf of the oppressed "Union loyalists" is a 
trip that he made when in command of a detachment of Confederate cavalry to 
arrest prominent Union men in Randolph County Alabama and bring them to 
Montgomery for trail. He was liberally supplied with Confederate money and did 
not hesitate to aid in hunting down the small class of men to which be now 
claims to belong and which he appears to be in most harmonious affiliation and 
over whose "wrongs and oppression" he simulates so many briny tears and affects 
so much eloquence.
