Dear Sir,
Yours of the 15th inst. enclosing is letter to you from M. V. Bailey is recd.   Maj. Ewing never had the authority to make the pledges contained in that letter. He was only authorized to find places where schools might be established and report the expense involved, when he might or might not be authorized to proceed [[strikethrough]] farther [[/strikethrough]] further.  We have never recd any report from your school, and therefore know nothing about it.  Fill out a report for March and forward it, and write me how many pupils you now have, and oblige
Yours &c
