Bureau R F and A Lands

Asst Com'r Va.

General -

There are rumors that threats have been made against freedmen, in the event that they do not vote at the forthcoming election - as their employers may wish, but as they can in a general way - and as nothing definite or tangible can be made of them, I think there need be but little uneasiness felt in this direction.  Reports of like character were not at the last election
