Lt. Gen. R. Buffman A. S. Asst. Com'r.
Dear Sir:  Rec. Mr. Clarke's request for $1000 has been rec'd. The decision is to appropriate $500. of which you will have official notice. I wrote that yourself and Mr. Clark may understand that it would be impossible to appropriate without the greatest injustice to the general work, and $500 is much larger than any other appropriation for a school of the size of size of Mr. Clarke's. If is called "for repairs" which, however is not meant to restrict its being used in a new building.

Yours Resp'y-
