Enclosure No. 3 to Despatch No. 162: Letter from Rafael Montalvo to Alejandro Rodriguez

Secretary Montalvo sends instructions from President Roosevelt to General Rodriguez to be distributed among the chiefs operating in the provinces of Pinar del Rio, Havana, Matanzas, and Santa Clara, Cuba. The chiefs are to allow all prisoners or others repenting of their error to return to their homes peacefully. Prisoners captured while in command of bands shall be detained in their respective camps until the government resolves to restore them to liberty or place them at the disposition of the special instructional judge. Rebel chiefs who have surrendered should also be allowed to return to their homes with assurance of no further molestation.
