Dear Mr. Waring
Sir:
In reply to yours of the 7th inst I am sorry to inform you that the allowance to Virginia for "Construction and repairs" for the current school year is exhausted;- at least so I have been officially informed from the Office of the Commissioner, Gen. Howard.

I hope to obtain yet three or four hundred dollars to meet a number of small obligations already incurred, but do not expect to obtain any considerable amount.

Very Respy
R. M. Manly
Supt Ed Va.
