Dear Sir:

Yours of the 11th came today and I send by to-day's mail boat 3 Registers and 20 blank teachers reports.  You will do me a favor to continue to keep an eye on Fayetteville aid Van Buren.  Tell me if I can do anything for them.  I presume I have written more than ten letters about a school at Fayetteville but am still ignorant of the situation there.  I hope an A.M.A. teacher will go to each point then we can help each other.  I rejoice in your success but regret that you did not get my letter addressed to you at Hartford Mis.  Your June report reached me in September. You see we must each exercise large charity and patience.

With Sincere regards,
Wm M. Colby
