127 83/275 April 15 Gen'l S. C. Armstrong Dear Sir: Money was recd, after long waiting, from Dr. Sears, only yesterday. I enclose a check for $119 for distribution as follows Phobe E. Hensen for Feb and March $16.00 Elias F Jefferson for Feb and March 16.00 R. H. Dennis for Feb and March 20.00 J. T. Brody for Feb and March 20.00 M E. G. Fitch for Feb. (March voucher not recd) 8.00 A. J. Montgomery for Feb and March 7.00 D P. Allan for Feb and March 20.00 R. S. Jones for Feb and March 20.00 $119.00 In the first place I wish to make the general remark, that such has been the unexpected increase in the attention in almost all the schools aided from the Peabody fund, that I must either shave down the allowance per pupil or [[?]] some schools I am pursuing the former method. If you prefer the latter please indicate some of your schools to be discontinued. Montgomerys average for Feb. in distinctly given 14 1/2 and for March it read's as distinctly 1631 ! Isn't his school getting so large that it had better be discontinued? Very Respy R.M. Manly Supt.
