Sir

I do not understand from your letter, where you have got the use of ground and what the $500.00 is for.  Have you got land for a school house and do you want to built such a house.  We are helping to built a few houses at most important places.  We do not built large houses.  I shall be glad to hear from you again & know more about what you are doing.

Very Respectfully

Sir

Your letter of Sept 19th is before me.  Mr. [[underlined]] J. H. Butler [[/underlined]] will visit your place in a few days.  I shall be not able to give you any conclusion until after his visit.

Hoping that a good school house will in some way be erected in your place very soon. 

Respectfully Yours
