S. C. Armstrong Esq 
Hampton, Va

Sir, 
I have this day forwarded to your address Dft for $100 amount of March rent. 
Hereafter commencing April 1st, we shall pay the rent to the society as formally, ie quarterly as to other societies, for the following reasons viz: That the average attendance of the schools for which rents are paid to you direct does not cover the schools with an average attendance of 30 pupils each, but falls short of a sufficiency to cover some 6 or 7 schools  This large deficiency will increase instead of decrease as the school year advances to a close, and it would be unjust to other societies to make an exception of this particular case.
Yours respectfully
R. M. Manly
Supt. of Ed
