RESOLUTION.
A resolution requesting the action of Congress for the relief of indigent soldiers families.
Whereas many families have been left destitute of the means of support by the absence of the male
laboring portion of said families, in the army of the Confederate States, therefore,
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of Georgia , That our Senators and
Representatives in Congress be requested to take such measures as will cause the collectors of the
“tax in kind” for the Confederate Government, to release to the Justices of the Inferior Court of the
counties of this State, upon their application, so much of the said “ tax in kind ” of the county in which
the Justice making the application reside, as will, in their (the said Justices) opinion, be necessary for
the support of the destitute or indigent soldiers families of their county.
