Dec. 19 66 Rev Command Kennedy Cor. Sec- Dear Sir: I am glad to learn that you are to send teachers to Abingden. Captain C.S. Shaeffer, Asst. Sup. (Bureau) writes from Christiansburg, Mongomery Co., that a committee of Colored citizens from Neck Creek, Pulaski Co. had called on him, asking that a teacher might be sent them. They have built a school house on land of their own. A teacher can board either at Mr. John Homes or at Mr. Hoge Taylers. I infer that these are white people and that, therefore, a white teacher can board with them. Hoping you will be able to meet this call also I am very Resp'y R.M. Manly Supt Edu
