In accordance with the recommendation made by Lieut Tubbs. Asst Supt. at this point I would respectfully call your attention to the consideration of the matter of setting the County of Bortetout [[Botetourt]]. now of this 6th district. off to the. 7th district

Fincastle (the County Seat.) is (40) forty miles from any public thoroughfare from this point, it is over and beyond the mountains, and difficult to get at from this way

It is only 14 miles from Beaufort Station on the Tennessee R.R. in the 7th District

I write this on information given by Lieut Tubbs
