We, the patrons and citizens of the Purcellville Colored School petition the School Board of Loudoun County to fill the vacancy caused by the transfer of Mrs. Rosalie McWashington. We feel that an injustice has been done to our children by placing them all together and we desire a full time teacher. Give us Mrs McWashington or another full time teacher.
