Richmond Va.

General
In obedience to Circular No. 6 series of 1866 Hd. Qrs. Asst. Comr. State of Va, I have the honor to report that a great many complaints have been made at this office during the last month by the Freedmen who claim not to have received justice from their employers in settling.

In most instance I have referred them to the civil authorities to redress their wrongs.  Poor consolation to them, however, in most cases.

I am General
Very Respectfully
Your obedt serv
