Sir

Do me the kindness to send me some forms blank No 22 - to make out rent for school houses and said school houses are the same as were reported by R.A. Wilson late Supt Asst Comr &c at this place. Send me the blanks & I will fill them out and have T.G. Cornish & Stewart Gaines; trustees respectively of school houses No 1 & 2 sign them & I will then return them to you.  I do this in order to have them in at your office by the last of each month.  Mr Wilson used the last 22's he had and his Clerk Mr Webster directed me to make application to you for some.  Hoping to hear from you at an early day.
   
I am Sir very Respectfully &c
John T Coleman.
