153 14 0/175 May 4 9 Rev. Fountain Richison Sir: I send you today some school report blanks, and wish yourself and the other teachers you tell me to fill out correctly a Report for April — so that I may see just what your schools are, and I wish the other men to write me letters with own hands. I will obtain permission to pay something — not much — to every teacher that is competent and who has a school large enough to make it worth the whole. You can supply the other men with blank Reports, and have them made out as soon as possible. I want the Post Office address of each teacher so that I can write to them. Your &c R. M. Manly Supt Education
