John Kimball Esq.
Washington D.C. - Dear Sir,

By the request of Mssrs Skillings & Flint, I send you my Catalogue & Price List of School Furniture,- No. 17. Cut, on Page 15. linear portable grammer School double desk & Chairs, I think will please you. These desks are for Scholars from 8 to 20 years of age- price for either height the same. - You will be careful to give the ages or height you require for any order you may give.- I made 32 double desks for George B. Emerson Esq of Boston, which he informed me where to be sent to Washington for Freedmen's Schools, this order was recd in February last. The Buildings not being finished they were not sent and are now on hand. They are entirely different from those in my Catalogue, being much less in price, $2.65 per Scholar, being very strong, substantial. I will send you one or more of them, or any desks in my Catalogue if wanted. I will refer you to Hon Samuel Harper or Alex. H. Rice Members of Congress from Boston. Should
