April 8
Matilda J. Taylor
General Thomas did wrong when he hired you to teach and promised you pay. He had no authority for doing so.
But I will do the best that can be done, and all that can be done. I have  recommended that $10. per month be paid you for four months from Jan. to April, and you had better close your school after April. If the man who owns the room in which you have your school must have rent for his room, you must pay it out of what we send you.
Some papers will be sent you for you to sign.
