Osceola Arkansas. May 17th. 1870 Mr. W. M. Colby Little Rock Ark. Dear Sir: In Volume 1, Number 5, of May 1870 of the Arkansas Journal of Education I find a statement of amt of money paid by Freedman's Bureau for School purposes in this County to be incorrect. You have Dist No 1 Miss. County charged with $60. I am Trustee of this Dist. and if we are entitled to this amt. I want the money. I have not received but $10. [[strikethrough]] when [[/strikethrough]] I know that I am entitled to more, for the benefit of this Dist. Supposing something to be wrong concerning this money I will wait - 30 days for a corrections at the expiration of which time I shal inquire into the matter Yours truly J O. Blackwood.
