content: The unbound monthly reports of rations issued, July 1865–December 1868, are generally arranged chronologically by month and thereunder alphabetically by subdistrict. The reports contain statistical data on the number and types of persons receiving rations and the value of the rations issued. From the reports submitted by the subdistricts the Assistant Commissioner prepared a monthly consolidated report that contained most of the information given in the individual subdistrict reports. Consolidated reports are filed before the subdistrict reports for each month.
