Jacksonport Ark April 1st, 1870 W M. Colby Supt. of Education Little Rock Ark Dr Sir Enclosed Please find Report for March. Our School has nearly doubled in last month, and is doing gloriously. We have lived down nearly all opposition, and compelled "Even our enemies to be at peace with us." I have heard nothing from last reports, or receipts signed and forwarded. I sent my last by hand to Batesville. Mr. Wilson Colored Preacher from the M.E. Church north sent by Gillem arrived this morning. We now have two fine Sunday schools. Can the operations of the Bureau, be extended to the small schools in the Country, where the whites will not provide for a small school under the Free School System? Yours Resply, E.C. Branch
