Lieut. Paul R. Hambrick.
S.A.C. 3d Sub Dist - Dist of Va.

Lieut
In compliance with Circular No. 6 Hd Qtrs Asst Commissioner Dist of Va, I have the honor to report the condition of Bureau affairs unchanged since last report. The freedmen are working very steadily & there is now a fair prospect of a good crop. the Sunday & day schools just being opened at two points in the County will, I believe, have  good effect & will promote the cause of Temperance. Temperance societies will be started at these points at an early day. There is a growing interest in the school question among the Freedmen in those parts of the County yet without school Houses & Churches.
Respectfully Your Ob't Servt.
