Rev. J. Sabine Knight.
School Teacher.
Maryville Tenn.

Sir:
I have this day notified you (per mail) that the sum of $100. has been allowed to repair and furnish your school at Maryville Tenn.

We have no authority to spend any sum for slates, maps, books. &c &c. but I will use every endeavor to have you supplied with some of the above articles by one or more of the fewer member societies of the North.  I would also suggest that you should apply in writing to the secretaries of some of the said societies for aid in reference to the above.  Should you send your application through this office. I will favorably endorse the same and forward to destination

Very respectfully
Your obedient servant
