245 July 5 Rev J.W. Alvord General Sup of Education My Dear Sir: In forwarding the accompanying statistical and general reports I beg you to accept a word of explanation. I am under orders to proceed North this P.M. on business connected with the Associations and the schools, and with the Normal School. I have been obliged to make out the reports now or leave them until near or quite the end of the month. The statistical report would be imperfect however long I might wait because many teachers left without filling their June Reports. Using reports already recd from the Sub Dists. I have estimated the rest according to my best knowledge. The General Report might have been better if I had had more time. I beg your acceptance of these as embodying all the principal facts. Very Respy R.M. Manly Sup Education Va
