Farmville Va

Colonel:
I have the honor to apply for the Authority to rent a room at Christiansville Va for a Freedmen's School. The said room is now being built expressly for the benefit of the Freedmen of that section, of my Division, by a Minister formerly of Ohio. He proposes to fit up the room at his own expense, And he wishes to have a day & night school, for the whole year. The room will be 20x30  feet, & well fitted up. There will be about 100 scholars near to attend it. 

Very Respectfully
Your Obett Servt
