Letter, W. F. M. Arny to Governor [John White] Geary Author: Arny, W F. M. (William Frederick Milton), 1813-1881 Date: December 8, 1856 This broadside of a letter by W. F. M. Arny was written to Governor Geary about the need for education in Kansas. Arny, an agent with the National Kansas Committee, proposed the creation of three funds: a university fund, a seminary fund, and a common school fund. Within the university structure, he proposed a normal school, an agricultural and horticultural school, and a mechanical school. He thought that it would be best to ask Congress for land for schools.
