Sir:

I have the honor to transmit herewith Monthly Report for November pertaining to Freedmens Schools in my District, being out of clean blanks I had to take a blank on which I had made some memorandums in pencil which you will please erase I have no rubber. My district being under martial law it will soon be occupied by State Militia when it is hoped I will be able to do something towards the establishment of schools for Freedmen.

I am sir very respectfully &c
S. Geisreiter Agt.
