Mrs. E. D Cheney

Dear Madam: 
In the month of January, when several schools were transferred from the N.Y. Branch to yours it was arranged that I should pay directly to those teachers $10. each per month, and that, accordingly, your Branch should send them that much less: - thus making it the same to them as when N.Y. Br. drew $10. from Gen Howard, as "rental" and paid them their full salary.
Agreeably to this arrangement I have been paying this $10. per month from Jan 1. but I find in that in several cases, and I do not know but in all Mrs. Hooper has been paying them their full salary, as though I were paying nothing. I have ascertained that this true in the cases of Miss Kelly, Mrs Slaton, and Mrs. Usher.
This ought not to go on and must be rectified as to the past. I would be glad to know what to depend upon, and have this matter properly arranged - 
Yours Very Respy
R. M. Manly
