This pamphlet presents the findings of a Joint Investigating Committee on public fraud in South Carolina, specifically focusing on the claim of Hardy Solomon. The investigation implicates Solomon in a large-scale fraud scheme involving former Governor Franklin Israel Moses, Jr., who served from 1872 to 1874. Published in 1878, the pamphlet details the accusations and evidence related to the alleged fraud, highlighting a significant political scandal during the Reconstruction Era in South Carolina. The involvement of Hardy Solomon, a Jewish man, and Governor Moses, Jr., son of a Jewish man, adds a layer of complexity to the case within the context of Southern politics during this period.
