Mr W R Wilmer
Dear Sir:
I return you the Deed. I have applied for the lumber & hope it will be sent in a few days.
Is not your house at Port Tobacco ready for school. Do you want my aid in getting a Teacher. If so, please state if you want White or Colored. What the Colored people can do for a Teacher. If a White Teacher, which sort of boarding place can be had. I think the school should begin on the 1s of Oct.
Have you not the schools ready to begin & for whom you want Teachers,
Vy resp
