Dear Sir
Your appeal of Aug 14. has been recd. 
I should like to have some information in regard to the places to which the teachers are to be sent. Will there be good and safe places for them to board? Do you wish any colored teachers? Please give me five or six places where teachers are required?  We have several more good teachers applying than we are able to support and may be able to help you with a few -

Very Respfly
