   In complaince with Circular No. 6 Series of 1866, Hd Qrs Asst Comr State of Virginia, I have the honor to report that there is no change in Bureau Affairs in this Division from last month, with the exception that two of the schools have been, and  are still closed.  During the month we have had only two day schools in operation, with an average attendance of fifty and seventy pupils. No cases of extreme suffering among the old and infirm has come to my  knowledge.
   As is my practice, I have visited a number of plantations and find them getting along very well, as a general thing a good feeling existing between the employer and employee.
Very respectfully
Your obt. Servt.
