General
In compliance with Circular No 10, BRF & AL. Hd Qrs Asst Comr State of Va Richmond Va Mch 12th 1866, I have the honor to report, That no Freedman was tried for any charge whatever before the Courts in this Division of the 6th Sub Dist. Nor was any Freedman concerned directly, or indirectly in any case tried before the Civil Courts.

I take peculiar pleasure in referring to the fact, that for the last Eight consecutive Months, that no Freedman was brought before our Courts on any charge whatever, in a population of at least Five thousand Freedmen.

Paragraph 4 & 5 of said Circular have been complied with as far as I can learn,

The Endorsement of Major Genl A. H. Terry on said Circular has not been complied with, generally, but no case has come up in which it has been violated lately,

I am General
