Maj. Genl. Wager Swayne,
Com. R.F. A.L. &c.

Genl:
What grade of school, primary, high, or both mixed, or unmixed sexes do you wish opened in the Marine Hospital? Shall we carry on the Asylum in the same building? Will it be a state or a private institution? Our Sec'y. Rev. J. M. Walden wishes me to confer with you and to have you define clearly your views, and state definitely what kind of school; what provisions for it, and also for the Asylum you expect of our Com.  At the same time tell us to what extent we may look for support from you.
Yours &c. 
E.C. Branch
