- Title
- Report from Lt. Charles McDougall for Quarter Ending March 31, 1867
- Date
- 04-01-1867
- Creator
- Lt. Charles McDougall
- Recipient
- Bvt. Capt. Edward Knower
- Description
- A narrative report on the state of Freedmen's schools for Maryland and Delaware. McDougall states there are no new facts to report for the state of Maryland but, "from Havre de Grace we are assured that the public meetings held there sometime since have wrought a decidedly good work there." States that progress in Maryland is hindered by want of teachers due to no existing authority to pay teachers. Because the "Baltimore Association has failed to supply the demand," the Bureau has been unable to open schools in many places where applications have been made. Includes a record of disbursements on account of materials for schools for Maryland and Delaware for the first quarter of 1867.
