Bureau R. F. A. Lands. Hd. Qrs. 8th Sub. Dist. Va Wytheville Va January 31st/68 Brevt Brig. Genl. O. Brown, Asst. Commissioner Richmond Va General I have the honor to report in compliance with Cir No 10. Series 1866. that no cases have been reported in which the Courts refuse to give justice or dealt partially in cases where Freedmen were interested parties. All the Courts admit the testimony of Colored Witnesses. I do not think that the sentiments entertained by the civil Officers will warrant the conclusion that a colored or a Union man could get full justice. Very Respectfully Your Ob't Servant Wm P. Austin Sub. Asst. Comr
