Sir

Enclosed is Mr Staceys bid for repairs of Freedmans School Room Amounting four Hundred Dollars. The Item of putting up Dressing &c of Ceiling is for much less than actual cost, but I hope to get the Freedman to do the work for the amt. We need the room and Seats very much, The freedman will Soon be done with their little Crop and Can Spare their Children mo or three months in School, Help us at once, give us help to Keep Competent good Teachers until the School System of the State is in operation, there are at least Two hundred Children in and around Brenham that need help, at present the Freedman are not able to pay-

Your &c
