Centerville. Andrew F. Hill at Salem Q.A. County P.O. Address Centerville.  Christina Howard, Annapolis Md.  Lucinda Smith, Tracy's island Md.  Miss Iredell has not been replaced.  The young lady who was to go to Solomons Island is sick and Mr. Catto wants to send a substitute, but I would write you first.  Did you tell me to place another lady, for Miss Iredell?

Very Respectfully

I gave Miss Smith $5.00 to pay her way to Tracey's Landing.  She writes me that her bill was some $3.50 (I haven't it near me) and I have instructed her to write to you.
