"Report the disposition and feeling of the white people towards the
freed people as expressed by words and actions."
The feeling of the white people toward the colored remains
about the same. There is no perceptable [perceptible] change to report.

EDUCATION.
"Report the feeling upon the subject of education; what steps have been
taken to promote the same; what efforts the freed people are making in that direction and in what manner they may be assisted, &c., &c."
I have used every facility at my disposal to advance
the cause of education but owing to the impoverished
condition of the freedmen have not meet with very
good success. I made several suggestions to the
Superintendent of education in regard to this subject,
but as yet have not been notified of any action
taken.
