3 said school for said occupancy. I have the honor to enclose statement made by T.D. Evans, clerk for W.H. Goodwin marked "C" and to which I beg to reply. As to the feeling against W.H. Goodwin, Agent, and also Mr. J.C. Sharp. Teacher at Lebanon, it is very strong, especially by the Col'd population who state that Mr. Goodwin has been tyrannical towards them as well as charging them for each and every thing he does for them. Against Mr. Sharp they are no less determined in the expression of their feelings on account of his severity to the children, and on account of his voting in the manner he did at a late election and which they state is contrary to their well being and interests. Statements made by some of the col'd men are as follows. Saml Britton states that he heard Mr. Sharp say that he did not care about the niggers and that they the niggers ought to keep their own place and that he has been teaching the school for the purpose of making money.
