John Kimball
Sup't of Education

Sir.
I am not at present connected with the Schools of Carroll County and hence have not given much attention in that direction, I believe however I can answer your queries. The House for Colored Children near this place has been finished Some time ago. No arrangements that I know of have yet been made for opening a School in it. Unfortunately for the Colored people here they are much more anxious to have meeting in the School house than School. I think however if they had a Teacher and some assistance a fine School could be had.

Yours Respectfully
