Theses selections were made with reference to stability of character, business capacity, and interest felt in the work of education. The land upon which the house is to be erected is now owned by a Mr. Coghill, and consists of about a half acre of ground. He was willing to let the col'd people have the use of it as long as it was occupied for school and Church purposes. I required that he should make out a deed to the Trustees upon the terms proposed which he agreed to do during the present month. It is a central locality and will accommodate from 100 to 150 children. If suitable teachers can be obtained it is proposed, if possible to begin a school at a place near Beaver Dam, knows as "Union Seats" and another at Fleming's Mills." In the event that these schools are organized, there will be from 90 to 100 pupils in attendance at the "Green Bay" school, with an average attend. of at least 60 ~ probably 75. If these schools cannot be started I estimate and average attendance of about 100, at the "Green Bay" School.
