55 Center Ala Nov 2d 1865 Thursday Considerable rain fell this afternoon. I wrote a letter to Mrs C.J.Henderson enclosing $20,00. The Grand jury adjurned untill next Tuesday, the majority of men who compose said Jury are strong SCesessionists and Union Men Can not get Justice from them, & Some of the Union men or Tories as they are Called by the Rebels are holding back their Cases with hopes of getting a better Jury next year. The Union Sentiment is increasing however in the Country, and one thing is Sure all their hopes of property in Negroes is gone for ever Amen.
