Slight correction. It's post #33.
Here is another link to the report. https://archive.org/stream/cihm_49664#page/n4/mode/1up
I found page 4 of the repot very interesting.

I don't know if by this time he's getting paranoid but " The bane and curse of carrying out anything in this country is the surveillance under which we act. Detectives or those ready to give information stand at every street corner. Two or three can not interchange ideas without a reporter" and

"The Presidential election has so demoralized the leaders of the order of the "Sons of Liberty" that a new organization under new leaders has become an absolute necessity"
