I am sorry you have been obliged to discontinue.
There is a school house unoccupied near Mr. Carr's in Dinwiddie, where you might teach - though the people there are very poor.

At Indian Town, King Wm. Co. (near Fish Haul Station on the York River R.R.) is a good opening for a teacher.  The people will board you, and I will extend the usual assistance.

Yours &c
R.M. Manly

Mr. Norbert A. Wicker
Pittsylvania CH. Va

Sir,

Your letter of 14th inst. is rec'd.  The people must not fail you in the matter of board and rent - I can do nothing in that direction.  I will aid them in the erection of a school house, if they are in earnest to have one and that will save them the necessity of paying rent.

Yours respty
R.M. Manly
Supt of Ed
