Colonel:
A week or two since I went to Upperville for the purpose of seeing what I could do toward organizing a school for the colored people at that place, I found this could not be done unless the use of a house could be secured, which at length I succeeded in doing.
I forward herewith lease in triplicate for the same which I trust will meet the approval of Superior Head Quarters Upperville is just across the line in Fauquier County 

I am, Col, Very Respectfully
Your Obt Servt
