Return of Prisoners


BOSTON, March 1. – Col. Lee and staff arrived here last evening.  They were received at the depot by Gov. Andrews and staff and a large crowd of citizens who greeted them with a hearty welcome and enthusiastic cheers.  The city Government proposes giving Col. Lee a public reception some time soon.
