Yorktown Va.
June 11th 1869

R.M. Manly Supt of Ed

Dear Sir
The colored people of this place have had a lot given to them adjoining or very nearly is the building that they wish to move onto it for a School house.

At Fort Magruder, there is no lot to be had at present but arrangements are made to the effect that as soon as the land comes into market (which is expected to be very soon) the lot will be purchased

Very Respectfully
Your Obt' Sevt'
H. Halstead
