J.L. Adams
Sup. S.S.-

Dear Sir:
In reply to yours of the 12th, I would say that I expect to be able to appropriate, from a charitable fund placed at my disposal, enough with what the Freedmen will pay to meet the expense of teachers board or nearly.  If you raise $300 or at most $350 we shall be able to supply the rest.
The importance of this school can hardly be overstated.- I hope you will not fail to send Miss Knowles

Very Respy
