In regard to the subject of education I report no schools in either Hill or Ellis Co. I expect to take a tour shortly through the most populous portions of these counties in order to ascertain what can be done in that direction, as far as I can learn the people are still more & more in favor of the freedpeople & their children enjoying the benefit of schools, Their former prejudices are doubtless fast dying away

Very Respectfully
