I have the honor to report from the counties of Lee Scott and Wise, there being no mail communications from these counties I am of necessity compelled to mail all my reports at this place,_ There is competitively speaking but few Freedmen in these counties say about 400 in Lee 250. in Scott and 100 in Wise they are doing better in these counties I think than any other part of the District working diligently and behaving quietly and peacably trying to support themselves and families,_

Very respectfully
