Aquasco or Woodsvill Md. April 29th 1868

Mr Kimball

Sir
I arrived here Thursday evening. And as there was some preparations to be made in regard to the school I thought It proper to wait until Monday to begin school. Monday morning I began school with 21 scholars, and today several others have entered.  According to what I have heard I think that within two weeks we shall have 60 scholars 

I should like to have about 
10 second readers,
10 first " [[ditto for readers]]
25 primers,
30 small size slates, and 
12 arithmetics for beginers

pleas send them as soon as posible

Yours Truly
