Leesburg, Va
May 19, 1933
Dear Will,
Being a patron of Woodburn school I understand there will be a change in teacher. I am writing you in favor of Mrs Thomas as I understand she is willing to teach and I am sure the neighborhood at large are in favor of her.
Respect H.W. Burke.

Dear Mr. Smith–
Being uncertain as to whether we will send our children to Leesburg, I am for Mrs. Thomas as teacher at Woodburn.
Yours truly,
Mrs F. M Jenkins
