Dear Sir
I also write you a few lines to inform you that Mr John Thompson has agreed, that he would gave a piece of Land for the Building of a School have, if the Gov. would have the house Built, or he would, rent this house to them, which I am now teaching in, we have a letter form Rev. S.B. Gregory says that General O.O. Howard, says that he give from four to five Hundred dollars, per house that last for a School and for religious worship. You can seek farther in to the matter By writing to the General. Please write to me soon of this matter. Yours truly
William H. Thompson
