Office B.R.F. & A.L. Huntsville Ala August 22d 1867 Rev'd C.W. Buckley Montgomery Ala. Dear Sir Mr Saml. H. Clark wishes to get up a Freedmans school in the Country some 12 miles from Huntsville. I am anxious to advance the Cause of Education among the Freed people! How much can the Bureau pay toward paying teachers in such Cases; May I expect a reply that will establish a precident in such Cases? As the Freedmen seem to be grasping for assistance in that direction more than for bread & Meat. I have the honor Sir to be Very Respt Yours &c Jno. B.
