From the Richmond Dispatch, 8/6/1864, p.1, c. 5

Going at Large. – Erasmus, slave of E. C. Epps, charged with going at large, was arrested by Officer Granger yesterday afternoon, and committed to the lower station house. On his person was found a Yankee pass permitting him to pass the Federal lines for the purpose of obtaining his daughter, which plainly shows that his purpose is to go to the Yankees. He also had about him a lot of greenbacks.
