Dear Sir

The School House at this place have been plastered and finished except the Porch, it have not been put up yet.  The work of this House is done very well and the House looks well. 
 
The cost of the land was 2 acres | $70.00
Cost of building & material bought | 194.25
And all Paid | $264.25

This House is all paid for and will soon be able to build the Porch and fence the House in.  Mr Macon Allen has 32 scholars and says they attend very well, he said that he copied the deed and sent it to you.  The people say that they intend to send more children to the school.

Very Respectfully 
Your obedient servant
