Lafourche Crossing 18 July 1865

Lieut
When Miss M. R. Williard received the circular regulating the hours for the session of the Schools during the Summer months, she received from it, the impression that the Schools were to open at 9 oclk - the circular was mislaid, & she had no idea that she was not conforming strictly to instructions, till
she recd. a notice about it - her practice, however,
had been as before, to get the school into operation before 9 o'clock, & the prescribed number of hours, & often more, even employed in giving instruction

Very respectfully
Yours obt. Svt.
