not reported as only changes in the land records were required to be reported after the month of November 1865

This property came into possession of the Bureau in pursuance of enclosed order.

I have not been able to complete the account of lands in counties of Accomac and Northampton although I have urgently called for it.

Maj. French, Asst. Supt. in charge has a very large sub district, is fully occupied and a lawless population, and, as it may be some time before he can comply with my instructions, I forward the record thus incomplete in consequence of its having been so long delayed.  The lands in Maj. French's sub district will be accounted for as soon as possible.  The record of lands on "Eastern Shore" turned over to me by Capt Flagg was utterly barren of information about the subject of occupancy, rental &c.

I am General
With Great Respect
