[[preprint]] 91 [[/preprint]] Washington D.C. June 7" 1867 Capt Lawrence If the Board is not willing to receive the deed have it made to the Colored men, but I hope the board will take it. As I may be away when Capt Norris' boat comes up, please tell him to call on Maj. J M Brown A Q M, who has been ordered by Gnl Howard to furnish & ship the lumber. I think you would do well to give him a note to Maj. Brown. I understand Charles Co. is added to your field. We want to get a house at Port Tobacco soon. I hope Capt Brubaker will post you fully & that you will put that matter [[underlined]] through [/underlined]], that is what the Gnl want now. Yours truly John Kimball Supt of Schools
