Madam

Your communication of 15th inst addressed to Maj Genl O.O. Howard Commissioner in reference to the establishment of Schools in your neighborhood has been referred to these Head Quarters for action.
I am instructed by the Asst Commissioner for this State to inform you that every facility at the hands of the Bureau will be given to aid you in your work.  If there is any suitable room available for school purposes in your neighborhood it can at once be rented at the expense of the Bureau.  In the mean time if there could be ground procured without cost to the Bureau a building can be erected at Govt expense.  Any additional information you desire will be given from these Head Quarters.  All that would be required by the regulations of this Dept would be a monthly report of the state of your school to be made to the Superintendent of Education.  The nearest Officer of this Bureau to your place is the one at Charlotte - but you had better for the present communicate directly to these Head Quarters.

I am Madam
Very respectfully
Your Obdt Servt
