Dear Sir:

I hope that deed will be made right and the property secured for colored school.  I have done all I can do for it.  I know that a good school will lift the colored people of L. out of their degredation somewhat.

If there is a school now please have a report of the same sent me month by month.  I will furnish blanks like the one enclosed.

Very Respectfully Yours
