If you can get up a good school, and the people will help you, and you can make me a good report, I can get you a little help. We pay good teachers twenty dollars ($20.00.) per month, and the people pay the board. I could not promise you half that now, but if you show that you can teach a good school, I can get you some help. There must be a school started some way in that house.
