General
I have the honor to transmit herewith "deed of property" for erection of a schoolhouse, and to state, that after due examination, I believe the title good. By a previous order it required the approval of Edwin Beecher, I would also suggest, that S.O. No. 29. c.s. be modified so as to permit me, to contract for the erection of the Building according to the plan and specification to be determined upon, instead of contracting for material and labor.
I will give it my own attention.

I am, General, Very Respectfully
Your Obt. Servt
