Title: Zacharias W. Haynes correspondence, 1868-1871 and undated.

Three letters, 6 December 1869, 25 April 1871, and undated from Zacharias W. Haynes of Raleigh, N.C., to his parents in Yadkin County, N.C., and one letter, 19 March 1868, from Haynes's father John to his son. Zacharias W. Haynes was a teacher at the North Carolina Institution for the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind, apparently in charge of the Colored Department of the school for 20 years. In the 1874 letter, Haynes briefly described conditions at the school; in the 1869 letter, he mentioned that the state owed him $80.00, which he could not hope to collect before the next year since the treasury had "gone dry." Other letters deal chiefly with family matters.
