Camden. Ark. June 30th '69.

Mr. W.M. Colby,

Little Rock.

Dear Sir-;

We are detained at this place yet, but expect to get off Friday or Monday, next. I hope to obtain an order for three months pay. Mr. Millen has written to Thos. Smith, Sup't. for instructions concerning this matter, and I shall wait for an answer. I now hope that this matter will be settled at once.

Our school has been closed; had an excellent examination, with but a few failures.

Fearing that I maybe detained here sometime yet
