without delay  We have engaged one acre of land from a colored man by the name of Singleton Dorsey who is ready to give a deed at any moment to be deeded for a school House.  I will give them all the information needed so they can go ahead as soon as they hear from you please write to Mr. Benjamin Williams at this Place.  Benjamin Williams is one of the trustees and will attend to all communications and the lumber if sent to Woodbine.  This place is near the intersection of three counties and I think that the people will build at once if there be no delay about the lumber 

Verry Respectfully Yours
