Sir
I have the honor to request information as to what Steps are being taken in regard to opening the School here this fall. Is it for want of a competent teacher? if so my wife who has had several years experience as a teacher would take charge of a school here with pleasure. She has taught in the Milwaukee Schools for some time. Please let me hear from you are this subject at an early day. As in my opinion the school ought to be opened as soon as possible
Yours Very respectfully
