Jno. S. Haten Esq
Marion, Va
Sir, 
Your favor of 4 inst. is received. Mr. Mc Dougal had no authority to employ Mr. Richison as a teacher. When the matter was brought to my notice, I allowed Mr. Richison some remuneration by employing him as a teacher, thinking that probably some injustice might have been done him, altho. I did not consider him competent to teach. I do not consider him entitled to any additional compensation on any ground, and nothing further can be done in the matter.

Yours respty
R. M. Manly
Supt of Ed
