8th Mo 22.66.
Mr Kimbll.
I was at Mr Jones home yesterday. He says he will sell to the Colored people for a school one acre of land for one hundred dollars. They can commence building the house next Secondday the 26th. So that now, I trust we may soon know the delight of having a nice large schoolroom. Next First day the 25th from traveling til four oclock  the colored people have meeting in Mr. Jones woods. If thee and Major Henry could be there soon after three and talk awhile to them. It would be an inspiration for them. I fear they will be a little dilatory in gaining the money and sending their children the extra distance. They want a stirring up anyhow concerning their responsibilities.
