“The neighborhood of my ward continues to be pillaged by soldiers of the 3rd Corps who, not satisfied with taking from the unfortunate inhabitants hiding in the cellars the little they have left, even have the ferocity to wound them with their sabers, as I have repeatedly witnessed.”

“Nothing new, except that the soldiers are robbing and pillaging⁠—October 9.”

“Robbery and pillaging continue. There is a band of thieves in our district who ought to be arrested by a strong force⁠—October 11.”
