Asst. sup. schools:
I have the honor to enclose check for $18.75 (9.50 for Persilla Johnson + $9.25 for Wm Bannister). The "average attendance" grew astoundingly under the stimulus of 25 cts, and has got beyond the reach of the funds I shall receive, which by the way, are not to be as much as originally promised by Dr. Sears. He has instructed me to diminish my payment which I shall be obliged to do in the future. 
Very Respy
