Cor 8th and Main St.

Sir:
Will you please inform this office of this office at your earliest convenience of the names and locations of the several teachers of colored schools employed by your association in the state of Tennessee.

The amount of funds set apart by the Commissioner for Educational Purposes in this state having been limited, this information is desired in order to determine the amount of money which can be devoted to the repairs and construction of school buildings after providing for the rental accounts of the several benevolent societies operating in Tenn.

Can you furnish a few teachers for new locations

Very respectfully
Your obedient servant
C. E. Compton
Bvt Lt Col USA
Supt of Education Tenn
