No. 823 South St Phila. Feb. 16, 1870. Gen. O. O. Howard Dear Sir: The school that you gave me at Forktown, Maryland, sometime since was declined by me on account of an attack of sickness, which caused me to return home immediately; but now as I have thoroughly recruited my health, I would like very much if there be a vacancy to teach again; you will favor me by sending an immediate answer --, if possible. Yours respectfully, [[signature]]Sarah J. Adger [[/signature]]
