It is anticipated that there will be at least (100) one hundred pupils in attendance. A sister of Mr Morris, it is hoped, will be induced to take charge of the school, as teacher. At all events I will undertake to say that a suitable teacher shall be secured by the time the building is ready which we shall make every effort to have done, so as to commence the school on the 4th day of January.

I shall visit the place on the 20th inst for the purpose of more thorough organization and will then report further. 

In the meantime I most respectfully and earnestly request the following appropriation 
5 windows -12 lights, each 10 x 12 estimated cost $15.00
4000 ft Pine lumber @ $10 estimated cost $40.00
For services of head carpenter $20.00
Total $75.00

It is also hoped that the necessary books will be furnished by the Bureau and 25 cts per month for each pupil to aid in the support of the teacher

Very Respectfully
Your Obt Servant
