The Government, which, through the Freedmen's Bureau, has been aiding in the support of schools, for the last five years, has now stopped all aid and is closing its affairs. It ceases to exist the present month. I am not able therefore to do anything for you and I know of no one that is. The people have now only to depend upon themselves. They must vote only for men who go for establishing schools

Yours &c
