Captain:- 
I have the honor to ask for an appropriation of $30.00/100 for the purpose of repairing a school building belonging to the colored population in Dinwiddie Co. about three miles from Petersburg. 

They have engaged a teacher and I think will sustain him. The school will probably number about fifty pupils. 

The building was erected by the colored people abut three years since. 

Very Respectfully
Your Ob't Servant.
