I also request that in cases where I desire instructions on certain points and it appears important to obtain such information with the least possible delay, I may when practicable obtain the same at the Hd. Qr. of the Bureau, reporting thereafter, of course, to you;

I desire information on the three points mentioned herein to be forwarded as soon as convenient.

As you directed in your communication of June 24. I have obtained a list of confiscated lands remaining unsold June 1st. - in my district, - but this list gives description of lands in Fairfax, Loudoun & Prince Wm. Cos. only. There are no lists of lands for any other Co. in my Dist. Fauquier, I know to be very important and Alexandria equally so.

Can you tell me from what records you obtained the Lists now at Hd. Qu. Bureau and where I can probably find [[strikethrough]] s [[/strikethrough]] like records for the other counties in my District. Fauquier I particularly want. In Alexandria Co. the property has been nearly all sold, I think. These lands shall be inspected and reported upon in full as soon as practicable. The steps taken to do this will be given in my report of present condition of my Dist. now being prepared.
