Transcription Notes:
The document and transcription seem to align left column transcription then the corresponding right column transcription, however this seems to be swapped in the case of "Am't pd. this month? Is your School supported wholly by Freedmen? Amount paid this month? Is your School supported in part by Freedmen?" I believe the "Am't pd. this month" should be after the parts asking about support. ---------- Reopened for Editing 2023-12-27 23:07:46
