Sir:
I have the honor to enclose herewith the report desired in your Circular of June 25 Ult.
I have not personally visited the localities named for new schools, but am satisfied from reliable information that the demands of the two Counties will be fully met by the establishment of teachers in the localities named.
No School System will be productive of much good unless free.
Very respectfully
Your obedt. servant
