Winchester Tenn
May 28. 1867.
Rev Mr. Burt Supt Schools}
Nashville Tenn}
Dear sir,
There is here a Mr Campbell sent by the Rev, Mr. Night of Nashville, who says that you informed him that you could not send us a teacher. Mr. Campbell offers to teach for us. But as you aided us in finishing us a house and have promised us a teacher, we feel that we should do nothing before hearing directly from you. Please write to me at once and tell me whether you authorized the Rev. Mr. Night to send Mr. Campbell here or not,
Yours Truly
Levi Trimble,
P.S. As you were so kind as to aid us in finishing our house we feel that we are under obligation to consult you and take no step about a school without consulting you,
