Mr. [[underlined]] Wm.

Another in tenth (10th) District about four miles from former place. You know all about that County: please tell me what you think about this man, and his school-houses. I am in the dark.

Dear Sir:
The average number enrolled in the Lincoln Industrial Night school for last quarter was two hundred and seventeen (217), according to my reports. Don't see how we can make it more. I have no reports from Miss [[underlined]] Watson [[/underlined]] for this quarter. Miss [[underlined]] Hoy [[/underlined]] is all right. Miss [[underlined]] Lovett [[/underlined]] is credited to the Pa. Association, as they have been paying her $15.00 until June 8th when her school closed.
The Industrial school closed May 22d according to Miss [[underlined]] Alvord's [[/underlined]] report.
Very Respectfully, Yours,
Supt. of Education.
