content: Monthly and quarterly reports of operations, June 1865–May 1868, are arranged chronologically. They are retained copies of reports sent to Commissioner Howard on Bureau operations in Arkansas. They summarize activities for a given period, mention problems, and give the Assistant Commissioner's opinions concerning the relationship between freedmen and the white populace. The reports are similar in content and format to those submitted by subordinate officers and probably were compiled from them.
