I have the honor to request that Mrs F.S. Tukey be appointed a Teacher of Freedmen Schools at this place without pay other then transportation to be furnished per to and from her home at the close of the regular session. My object in making this request in this form is to supply the urgent necessity of a teacher here, which I am satisfied cannot be supplied in any other way, and the people are too poor to support a pay school.
I am Gen'l very Respectfully
Your Obedient Servant
F.S. Tukey A.S.A. Comr
