Friday A.M. 

Mrs Ede

The scholar which you claim, (Ellen Williams) has not been a member of your school, so she tells me, for two months; having been at a pay school on Melpomene St kept by Mrs Holmes. During her absence from yours she is now living on Jackson St between Coliseum and Chestnut, in the fourth district; which is in my limits. Therefore I admitted her without a discharge, as she came from no school, (direct) under the the Board of Education, for freedmen. 

Very Respectfully, 
P.M. Williams.
