Sir, I have the honor to enclose for your information a Consolidated School report of the Colored Schools in this Sub-Dist. for the month of October 1867. 

The reports of the Schools at Bartlett Brownsville, Nunns Plantation and Covington were taken from the reports for September no report having been received for the month of Oct. I have made application but as yet have received no report from the Somerville School. 

Our City schools although numerous enough are not well patronized and will not be as long as tuition is charged. An effort should be made to have the Phoenix and Lincoln Schools conducted on the Free School plan
