I have just received the deed, which I now return to you.  It has been delayed somewhere on the road.  It is satisfactory to me, and it meets the demands of the Bureau.  Please have it signed and recorded without delay.  Hope your school is making good progress.

Very Respectfully, Yours,

Your report and letter received.  You are not obliged to make the report to that gentleman.  Still I am willing that you should make it, certainly if he will aid the school in any way, and I shall be glad for him to know what you are doing.  Glad to hear that you are prospering.

Dear Sir:

I made your request to the General, but do not know what he has done:  he has been very busy.  Very difficult to reach him.  I will find out this day.  I think it will be very difficult to get him to go in person.

I send this letter for [[underlined]] Janifer [[/underlined]] through you.

Very Respectfully, Yours,
