Office Supt R.F. + A. L. Camden, Ark, Dec 4, 1866 Bt Maj John Tyler Capt V.R.C. A. A. A. Genl. Major Extract. There are no organized schools for freedmen either in this County or Union. Two male teachers could do well here and their school would be self sustaining. I would be difficult however for female teachers to procure board. The freedmen are very anxious that schools be established. I am very respectfully, Your Ob't Serv't, (Sgd) J. S. Thorpe Supt R. F + A. L.
