School Charity
The Court of Equity in Leon County, has taken under its
care and control a fund which the undersigned, as Master in
Chancery, is directed to lend for the term of five years at 8
per cent. interest, payable half yearly, secured by bond and

plications for that purpose.
He is also directed "to appropriate the interest arising from

ding within the limits of the city of Tallahassee." He there-
fore desires to be informed, without delay, of all the children
entitled to the benefits of this charity; and of the terms &c.
upon which teachers are willing to receive and instruct them.
On Saturday the 1st day of July he will attend at the Court House to close contracts for school-
ing, &c., to the end of the year, and wishes teachers interested, and the children with their parents or guar-
dians to meet him there at 11 o'clock in the morning.
