Special Assistant Attorney General McHarg updates Attorney General Bonaparte on the legal situation in New Mexico Territory. McHarg asks for permission to hire Mexican nationals to aid in investigations he is conducting. McHarg tells Bonaparte that though Bonaparte believes charges against territorial Attorney General William H. H. Llewellyn will be dropped, his son, Morgan Llewellyn is involved in illegal activity and therefore the elder Llewellyn should be kept from any grand juries. McHarg details several territorial court clerks who have been accused of crimes, saying a thorough investigation of the territorial judiciary must be made at once.
