Description

An undated envelope on which a letter is written with little identifying information. The unknown correspondent appears to be writing to J. N. Crooms presenting a $50 bond from the teacher Mrs. L. W. Simms "and the girls of the Home Economics Department" for renovations to Crooms Academy, but it is unclear if these are from Crooms Academy faculty/students themselves.
