Rev. John Kimble

Dear Sir

As we dont feel entirely able to imploy a teacher yet if it is in the power of those who furnished us with teacher, please furnish us for one more term and by that time I think it poble that we shall be better able to pay the saleary of one.  We did not get along as well as the children was all so far behind until just about the time for the school to stop  Please answer this as soon as posible and let us know what you can do for us by the first of october  I would be glad to have a man as the distance they have to walk is considerable, if not we will glad to have a woman.  Our school is the Hunting Creek School.

Yours truly
