[[underlined]] Chambers Mr Wm. H. [[/underlined]] Dear Friend: What day did you write me you should close school. I shall be glad to come over if I can, and should like to see you at my office. If you wish to continue teaching through the winter season, I think it would be quite well for you to remain where you are, and build up the school. The house should be plastered. Do you think a change should be made in board of Trustees. Respectfully Yours (Sgd.) John Kimball Supt. Education. [[line]] 89 Bureau R.F. and A.L. Office Supt.

Vanderlip [[/underlined]] has been forwarded to me. The school houses are in the hands of the local school board, generally composed of colored men. We have not power to grant the request. I know the meetings of the Union League are held in these houses, and think the Trustees generally are Republicans. Respectfully Yours, (Sgd.) John Kimball [[/signature]] Supt. Education.
