Office S.A.C. B.R &c Corpus Christi. Aug. 31. 1868. Lieut. Chas. A. Vernou. A.A.A.G. The feeling among the colored people is good, and for the want of a teacher, they are encouraged to teach one another, and in this way they are making some progress in a private way in families. They would be greatly assisted if some benevolent persons would send them a teacher, who would be partly paid by the scholars. The colored people have built a house, suitable for teaching and preaching. They have a flourishing Sabbath School of between 50 & 60 scholars. Very Resp &c (Signed) John Dix S.A.C. No School except in private families
