Georgetown D.C. Nov 6th 1869.

Gen O O Howard

Dear Brother:
The Bearer is Sandy Parker from Halls Hill, Va, 4 miles from Georgetown. He will give land for a school house — the location is right. If a house can be secured, I have full confidence that a school will be sustained.

Yours for the Freedmen
Joseph R Johnson.
