Dr Sir

The enclosed report is respectfully submitted with the regret of the teacher that the Freedmen have not paid their subscription of $20.00 per month to carry on the School and the additional fact that no interest has been taken to raise the Funds Therefore this School must of necessity be closed. School teaching in this vicinity will not be supported by the Freedmen as Mr Groce has taught two School in this county for nearly two years with like success. They have procured timber for a School house to be raised on granted land to be about Fourteen feet square while there is a population sufficiently large to educate at least one Hundred Scholars
