Bureau Refugees Freedmen and A.L.
Office Asst. Supt. Sub-Dist No. 10.
Staunton Augusta Co. Va Aug 31/66

Captain R.S. Lacy
Supt of 8 Dist. Va
Lynchburg Va

Captain,
I have the honor to submit the following report of Bureau Affairs for this Sub-Dist - Comprising the Counties of Augusta, Highland and Barth - 

There have been comparatively few complaints of ill treatment on the part of freedmen which is in part attributable, I think, to a feeling in their part that proper redemption cannot be obtained.

Arrests of freedpeople on charges of larceny have been frequent in Augusta Co. - though for petty offences, the evil seems on the increase.

Very Respectfully, Your Obt Servt
Geo I Cook
1st St U.R.C. and Apt Supt.
