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.
