Nov 3/68 M S Hopkins ACAC School at Charlottesville Bureau R F & A L. Gordonsville, Va Nov. 3" 1868 Respectfully returned to Rev. Mr. Manley Richmond 7th. I saw Mr. Cobell today and can get no trust from him other than those offered in the enclosed letter, which his agt. sent me some days ago. I enclose you a plot of the lot on which the building stands. The lot purchased can be sold and the proceeds applied with the $1000.- But to do anything but continue to rent as at present seems to me impracticable with the means in hand or available. M. S. Hokkins A.S.A.C. &c.
