Freedman, - as it is in the public schools, the world over.  The schools would not need to be any less christian or any less churchly for being parts of an efficient system.
It is probably too late to make any changes to the present year.
   I beg pardon for writing so long a letter. I am happy to hear so good an account as I do of your schools, and hope within a few days to have the pleasure of visiting them and of conferring with you in reference of their interests.

I am Very Respecfully
Your sert & friend
