Rev. R. M. Manley.
Supt. of Education

Dear Sir
If I could have a colored teacher for the school house in New Kent County for which I have today asked $40.00 I could start a school here at once. The leading man among the freedmen lives but an eighth of a mile from the school house & will board teacher. Can you send me one to Tunstalls station on york River Road & give me notice what time he or she would come so that I could have her sent for & have the books over there? It's a central point for a school. I wish you could also send me a teacher for my "Grant" school at West Point Church Va. Please write me soon about this & about Carters pay of which I wrote somedays ago & oblige -

Yours Respectfully
