Wellville Nottoway Co Va Jany 4, 1869 Rev R. M. Manly Supt Education Richmond Va, Rev Sir, I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of Dec 28th and heartily thank you, for myself & the students proposed to be benefited by the appropriation. If we can secure from the "Bureau" the same amount for month ($10) as was paid the past year, it will enable us to have a weekday, night & Sunday school without any expense to students except books, and the teacher & assistant will realize, probably from ¢30 to ¢35 per month for services, possibly more some months and all connected with the school will be encouraged to do their best. I am Very Respectfully Yr Obt Svt J. W. Murdock
