Description	Folio 25. Draft letter from the Poor Law Board to [Thomas Watkins], Clerk to the Guardians of the Cardiff Poor Law Union, referring to his letter of 1 February 1851 and requesting completion of enclosed form for Miss Dodd's as Schoolmistress. The salaries of schoolmistresses are still fixed regulated in the same manner and subject to the same authority as are the salaries of all other officers connected to the relief of the poor. The Committee of Council does not fix the amount of the salaries of the union schoolmistresses, they merely decide what sums shall be repaid to the guardians from the Parliamentary Grant. The Board therefore wishes to know what salary the guardians think should be assigned to Miss Dodd in order that a specific remuneration can be determined in case her appointment be sanctioned by the Board. Paper Number: 7478/1851. Poor Law Union Number 613. Counties: Glamorganshire and Monmouthshire.
