Maj' Van

I shall send a ^[[colored?]] man to teach school at Mt Tabor next week.  He is a smart man from Cleveland, Ohio.  I shall see that his salary is paid, the people must furnish a good boarding place.  Last time I saw Rev Mr Grass he said they were all ready, that was several weeks ago.  I do not know where to write to him.  Will you let them know that a teacher is coming & be there ready to receive him.

Vy respectfully Yr.
John Kimball
Supt of S.

His name is James M Gregory
