The following Telegram received at Washington,  M. Nov 1865.
From   Nov 1865.

nefarious movement is R. B. R. Plumly, late Chairman Board of Education, removed for just cause by Gen Canby, and a man I deem wholly unfit for the sacred Office he once filled. The freedmen of the State are unanimously in favor of the present Officer. We pray you to thwart the purposes of these foes to the civilization and education of my people.

Very Respectfully
Your Obt Servt
