Hampton VA Oct 31 '68

Bvt. Brig. Gen. O. Brown;
Asst. Comm.
General:

I have the honor to report, pursuant to Circular 10, series of 1866, that, during the past month, the civil authorities have, so far as I have been able to discern, administered justice with impartiality, in the county of Elizabeth City.  No Freedman's evidence has been rejected that was admissible.  

The feeling between races has not been provoked and greater than usual care is taken, in my opinion since the definite political prospects.

Very resply, 
Your Obt Servt
S C Armstrong
Sub Asst. Comr in charge 1st Division 5th Sub Dist
