TO Whom it May Concern:
This 1s to certify that Mr Lawrence W. McKenzie, contractor, of 5010 Washington Place NE, has volunteered his services and facilities without charge to supervise and paint the Frederick Douglass Memorial Home located at 1411 W street SE. The painting starts Saturday June 4, 1955.

This historical shrine was the home of a great American. He was a recorder of Deeds, U.S. Marshall and great abolitionist. The home is badly in need of repair and paint.

Volunteers have donated us food, their services etc to help fix up the place.

The committee,the community,the city and nation would appreciate the consideration you will give Mr McKenzie on the paint that
we wi11 need to do this job.
