A.A.G. 8th A.C.&#13;
Col.  In reply to inquiries made to me by the Maj. Genl. Comdg. concerning a Mr. Stevens  I have the honor to state, that while stationed at Havre-de-Grace in the summer of 1861, I obtained information from a negro, that there was a quantity of arms concealed in the barn of a Mr. Stevenson. I sent Capt. Watson  (who was afterwards killed at the battle of Antietam) of my regiment to search and he succeeded in finding about thirty stand of arms concealed under the floor of the barn. These arms, I seized, but being unable to obtain any evidence of Mr. Stevenson’s complicity, and he disclaiming all connection with, or knowledge of, the matter, I took no further action in the case. &#13;
This Mr. Stevenson, I learn is now senator elect from Harford Co. Very Respectfully Your Obedt. Servt. &#13;
