Captain
I have the honor to report that civil justice is nominally impartially administered throughout the 1" Div. of the 8" Sub. Dist. of V.a. consisting of the counties of Wythe, Bland, Tazewell, Smythe, Grayson & Carroll, altho practically there are many embarrassments thrown in the way of the colored man

Very respectfully
