Bureau R.F.& A.L
Head Qrs. 9th Sub Dist. Va
Winchester, Va. Jany 31. 1868

Bt. Brig. Gen. O. Brown
Asst. Comr. Va
Richmond, Va

General

In compliance with Circular No. 6. dated Head Quarters Asst. Comr State of Va. January 29th 1866, I have the honor to report the condition of Bureau affairs in 1st Division 9th Sub Dist to be without improvement, except in the increased stimulus toward education. The schools have been better attended, and a more determined effort has been made to make them self sustaining. But one contract for labor has been entered into at this office for the coming season, and but little disposition is shown either by the whites or colored at this time.  

While there are but few complaints made against colored people for any causes, there are many against whites for injustice in the settlement
