Christiansburg, Va. September 11th 1869. Rev. R. M. Manly Supt. of Education, Va. Dear Sir: Yours of the 6th inst. is at hand, relative to Miss Eastman's application for aid towards building an addition to her School room. The work is partially completed - it will cost $500. Miss Eastman proposed to collect all the money, and therefore the freedmen were not solicited for aid - except to dig out the cellar. She has not as yet informed me how far she has succeeded in securing the funds. I have paid bills thus far with some little inconvenience, out of my own private funds. I can give you fuller information, after corresponding with her on the subject. Very Respectfully, C S Schaeffer Asst. Supt of Schools
