Indigent School Children, September 4, 1860
Source:  Minutes of Commissioners' Court, Refugio County, Texas.  
Microfilm located at Corpus Christi Public Library.
 
I transcribed these Minutes of Commissioners' Court from poor quality microfilm.  
The copies were very light in places and difficult to read.  I have copied the records 
just as they were written, including punctuation, spelling and capitalization. If you 
know of any corrections that need to be made, please contact me.
