1091 population is very large, are cared for by the civil authorities of the County: I have neither seen or heard of any vagrants. I am sorry to be able to report no improvement among the freedmen in the matter of intemperance, a vice prevailing with them to a considerable Extent. The freedmen's School at Wellville is in active operation and, as will be seen by the report, in a very flourishing condition; the School of Burkeville still remains closed, the teacher not having returned, tho' it was expected that it would have been re-opened during the month. I am, Captain, Very respectfully your obed't Serv't R.G. Rutherford Lieut. 45th U.S. Infantry; A.S.A. Commissioner.
