Office Asst. Supt. Ed.
2nd District
Galveston, Tex, Mar. 5th 1869.

Rev. Joseph Hatch
Supt. Education
Austin Texas,

I have the honor to report that I have employed Geo. C. Booth to teach in the house rendered vacant by P. S. Meadows discontinuing teaching, at monthly compensation of $25.00 per month and respectfully request that an appointment be sent to him through this office to date Mar. 4th, 1869. The school he is going to teach is small and everything very expensive here. I think $25.00 per month is quite as little as should be paid to teachers in this city.

I had hoped to get a teacher for this school from the Amer. Miss.
