Mr. C. P. Wheeler

Dear Sir,
How soon will your School Building be ready for occupancy? How many pupils will it accommodate? How many teachers will you need? Has your State County Superintendent taken the Enumeration? What will he pay teachers per month? The county Supt here pays all teachers from the North 50/per month from the common school funds. See the County Supt on this subject and write me. If he wishes I can secure two or three or more good teachers for your place. I have sent for eight for Montgomery. The Legislature of Ala recently appropriated $350,000 for school purposes this year. I will send them transportation to the field. Please ascertain the facts & answer the above questions as soon as possible. Even any information you can give on the subject.
Yours truly
R. D. Harper
Supt. of Education
