Gentlemen
Owing TO conditions that exit !,
our locality at this time, tiod il nac
essary TO address you regard IN N.
pupils we have on this. Midway Man
tation and North Bend plantation
We have This day on the sbova
named place.. six pupils above tha
9TH grade and seven pupils below thu
9th grade. The prospects are, we vlI
have ia the near future some sir mr.
seven more pupils on this pl ace Mid.
way plantatiOn) at which time, I thinL
We will be entitled to teacher a.
Midway school.
la view Of this fact, and ia ords.
that each might get the necessar.
schooling in their respective grades
having two pupils myself, I would
suggest that all the pupils from Mid
way plantation and above Midway
plantation, GO to the Centreyills
School. This would facilitate mat.
tiers a great deal, and at the same
time eliminate this expense from fall
ing entirely upon the parents of these
children.
Therefore. beg to submit to YOU
the following proposition which teeI
will be satisfactory and meet with thu
approval of all concerned
l will furnish transfer with a "a.
pacitv to transfer twenty pupils. Will
transfer the pupils from Midway
plantation as far uD as MARYLAND
plantation, Maryland plantation in.
cluded. provided the number doesn't
exceed twenty, for the sum OF SEVENTH.
five ($75 OO Dollars per school month
of twenty days Will continue to do
this until we shall have an average
attendance on Midway plantation of
ten pupils, at which time. my obIigs.
tions above North Bend plantation
will cease, provided. can get the
TWENTY pupils on these places, Midway
and North Bend.
Should the roads at any time be-
come in condition that it will be i'm.
possible for me to make the trip, you
have the privilege OF deducting from
my salary the sum of 1920 for each
such day.
Thanking you very much for your
In this matter. and
trusting that you will consider my
favorabiy. l beg to re-
main,
Very truly yours. ~
w. J. TH[BODAUX.
A discussion took place 10 which it
was recommended that the number OF
pupils to be transferred should be
fixed to th:rty-five instead of twenty,
and a forfeit should be seven dollars
and fifty cents, instead of three dol
lars and twenty cents. however, the
matter was finally referred to the Su-
for solution as per min,
utes Of the regular July meeting.
There being no further business. on.
motion of MIR. ]. D. Ehrlich, seconded,
by Mr.. Vim. Folse, the meeting ad-
journed.
