[[preprinted]] 60 [[/preprinted]] Washington D C April 20th 7 April 23rd 1867 Capt J C Brubaker. Supt of Freedmens. Sir, I am very anxious to get a school in operation some where in your County. If in the only Co where there is none - Cannot we get one started at Port Tobacco. I will come down & help in this matter if I can do any good. I will go with you through the County & inspect with a view to establishing schools. But if we can get one good school in operation at P. Tobacco. I know it must do good and will have an influence upon the rest - of the County. Please reply immediately telling me what you think can be done. The Bureau will help in building a house if the land can be obtained, & some Society will run the school. Very respectfully John Kimball Supt of Schools
