I have the honor to request an appropriation of ($50) Fifty dollars to repair the School House at Lunenburg C.H.
This school has one hundred and ten scholars enrolled and a daily attendence of about 90 and the number daily increasing
 The present room is 20 by 18 feet and too small to accommodate them.  With the above aid the Freedmen will give enough to  enlarge the room to twice its present capacity.  Without it it will be almost impossible to accommo-date the scholars that apply.

I am Very Respectfully
Your Obt Servant
