New York,
Dear Mr. Manly:
The A.M.A. will not send Mr. Scott, or anybody else as a teacher, to Staunton, Va. As soon as the colored teacher who is under appointment for Newcastle Del. reports at that place, Miss Allison S. Jones will leave to join Miss Rowell.
I inclose Mr. Jackson's papers. Ask him to see that the money which Miss Rowell collects is used for her board. The collection has been made, but [deleted: the] her bill has not been paid. If this is done, and he sends in his bill for furniture, I shall see that some allowance is voted in his favor.
