My dear Sir
I have your favor of the 25th with enclosures, & give it careful attention. On Saturday last a gentleman was introduced to me whom I shall send forward in a few days to fill the office of Asst. Supt. & Spec. Agt. left vacant by the declination of your friend in Wisconsin. With him I shall endeavor to send one male & one female teacher at least, & perhaps more
Very truly yours,
J.R. Shipherd, Sec.
