RF. + A.L., Ste. of Va., Sir, _Extracts_ * * * * * * * The Schools, in this Co. have not yet commenced. A few private schools, are in operation in the Co. I can give no information concerning them except the one at Scottsville, which I have applied before, for help, but without success. A young colored man named H. Clay. Harris has a School there and is struggling along with little success, the people being to poor to keep it up. I respectfully recommend, that a permanent School be established at Scottsville, as there is great need of one in that place. * * * * * * * I am, most respty Your most obt. servt (Sgd.) A. F.
