I have the honor to request permission to purchase the following material for a schoolhouse which is being erected in Hanover Co. near "Old Church", viz:

1000 feet of lumber
100 lbs of nails
5 Windows (glazed)

At a total expense of not more than Thirty Seven dollars.  With this assistance the freedmen will speedily complete the house, which is now well advanced.
