8 [[no entries]] 9 #1. Little Rock, Ark., Jany 11th 1869. Clark Eliza Helena, Ark. In compliance with your request of January 4th inst. I herewith transmit two dozen (24) teachers' report blanks. Very respectfully, Wm. M. Colby, #2. Little Rock, Ark. Jan'y 11th 1869. Getman Miss D. F. Pine Bluff, Ark., Yours of the 8th is before me. I advise no change while your numbers continue as at present, and I have no doubt they will increase to 75 or 100 by the close of the month. May I suggest that Camp's Intermediate be the first and only book of Geography used in the colored schools - such was my plan after having the subject for some time under advisement. Oral instruction may very properly supply the place of a primary book and both time and expense be saved thereby. I will procure Greene's Introduction - a very good book - and forward you to morrow if to be found in town; otherwise will order them to you from the north by mail. Very Truly Yours, Wm. M. Colby, Ass't Supt. of Schools.
