294 Oct. 12 1867 Rev. Robt. Adair: 1334 Chestnut St Philad Sect' My Dear Sir: I rec'd a call yesterday from a young colored minister, by the name of Davis if I remember correctly, who stated that he was in your employ. He is striving to build school-houses and seeks aid from the Bureau. Assistance can be given, to a limited extent after we have rec'd assurances from responsible parties that a teacher will be maintained after the school house is completed I desire to know whether you can assure the maintenance of teachers. An application from yourself, for aid a given point, with [[strikethrough]] an [[/strikethrough]] your official assurance a teacher shall be supported there will be the best way and will have immediate attention. Very Respy Your Obt Sevt R. M. Manly Sup. Education Va.
