Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands, 
Head Quarters Assistant Commissioner State Of Virginia
Richmond, Va., July 28th 1866. 

Maj. Genl O.O. Howard
Commissioner &c.

General:
I have the honor to report that orders for the restoration of Lands are sent from the Commissioner's Office direct to the Superintendents of the Districts in which the Lands are located. As this creates confusion in the papers of this Office, I would respectfully ask, that, hereafter, such orders may be sent through these Head Quarters.
Very Respectfully
Your Ob't Serv't.
Alfred H. Terry
Maj. Genl. & Asst. Commr.
