George Newcombs-
Your stay in this City will not be longer submitted to. We know you are trying to turn the negroes against the whites and for this reason we owe it to ourselves to get rid of you. We would not hurt you for teaching negroes but some good negroes tell us how you tell them to soon rise up and kill all the whites. I write this in warning, I am instructed by my three friends to say this. We want another negro teacher but you cant stay, here any longer. We give you till Wendsday night 12 oklock to leave in and God have mercy on your black soul if you are here longer. You have been warned this is the last time in this
