- Description
- A narrative report on the state of Freedmen's schools for Maryland and Delaware. Includes information about schools in Baltimore City, along with the counties of Anne Arundel, Harford, and Cecil in Maryland, and New Castle in Delaware. About Havre de Grace: "a while since, a one-story church used as a school house was burned down by Rebels," but is being replaced by a two-story building built with lumber from the government. Day assisted in dedicating the new building; $175 was raised by the local community to help pay the debt on the building, "which is still of a considerable amount." Mentions that at Hopewell Crossroad and Darlington, schools are established or are being erected; some have been "completed in seven or eight other localities" in Harford County.
