The largest Sunday School is at this place and on last Sabbath had 240 Scholars. The Bristol Sunday School has Sixty Scholars. The $100 appropriated to build a School House at Bristol is too small an amount. And the Freedmen there are too poor to raise the balance needed viz $200. If 300$ was allowed then it would not be too much that amount would put up a sufficient building and secure the ground and building to the school committee. The Sunday School in Russell Co at Lebanon Rich Gardens and Bicklys Mills have an average attendence of 30 pupils each All these school are taught by colored people themselves excepting the Schools at Kelly Cappel and the one at Maxwells School house in this county these two last named are taught by white men. The children that attends these schools are in very many cases extremely poorly off for deacent clothing. Very Respectfully Your Obedient Servant John O O'Neill Capt VRC Asst Sub Asst Comr
