How. W. Stover
Capt & AQM &c

States that the condition of the freedmen in this Dist is substantially the same as at last report. Has secured a company of Infantry at Harrisonburg which gives him effective jurisdiction in Rockingham Co.

Lt Tubbs reports the withdrawal of troops from Botetourt Co. without them can do nothing in that county.

Thinks the troops are taken from Bath & Highland Cos. in which case thinks it useless to attempt the maintenance of agencies there.

Transcription Notes:
---------- Reopened for Editing 2023-08-06 16:51:27 surname "How" unsure if middle name is "Storer" or "Stover" It's Storer according to Soldier's database, and his signature, but does look like Stover here.
