Isaac A. Meyer's Claim Against the U.S. Government for Losses During the Civil War

This one-page congressional record document from April 5, 1882, details a claim filed by Isaac A. Meyer for clothing and furniture allegedly confiscated by U.S. forces in Memphis, Tennessee, in March 1863. Meyer was accused of aiding deserters; however, due to the time elapsed, Congress determined there was insufficient evidence to grant the claim.
