Little Rock Ark
January 10th 70

Gen C.H. Howard,
Chicago, Ill.

General:
I find the Bureau building at Helena unoccupied - except by goats and have taken measures to have it put in a condition to be occupied, and hope you will be able to send a first class teacher there, one who will not only resusitate the school but make it very soon one of the best in town. While an ordinary teacher would be likely to fail in securing the patronage of the Board of Directors a superior one would in a short time, if not from the first, secure such patronage and place himself among the foremost teachers of the county. It is a golden opportunity for a good man.
