War Department,
Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen, and Abandoned Lands,
Washington, Dec. 19", 1866.

Mr. C. W. Buckley 
Supt. Education.
Montgomery, Ala.

Sir,
In reply to your letter to Rev. J.W. Alvord, I have the honor to state that where the transportation of teachers actually on duty has been paid to their different stations, it can be refunded on presentation of proper certificates, duly approved by the State Superintendent.

I enclose copies of Certificate of Transportation which you ask for, and extra copies to meet the cases you mention, of teachers who have been sent from the North.

Very Respectfully,
Your obt. servant,
S. Willard Saxton.
