Washington, Oct 20 '69
Respectfully returned to Rev R.M. Manly, Supt. Ed. who will please have the vouchers in favor of Mr Farrar made up as indicated by the enclosed draft of voucher, the voucher being thus made up it will not be necessary for Mr Manly to take up the furniture manufactured on his return. It should be understood that there is no appropriation out of which accounts for furniture as such can be paid, but when school furniture is in the nature of permanent fixtures - then it comes under the head of construction and repairs, and accounts therefor, when the expenditure has been authorized can be paid
