Some afternoon next week spend the night with me meet them at say 7 oclock.  I will get them together it will take you very little from business places and recreation & you may perhaps impress upon them in some degree the importance of more zeal.

If you should not get up, they say they will be ready about the first for a collard man teacher.  A woman is out of the question owening to the distance she would have to walk for there is no place other than mine that she could get board.

Yours truly
