Dear Boe,

A society in South Dedham have raised the money to send a teacher South and have selected my niece, Miss Mary Perkins.  They tell me that they can select the location, though she goes out under the auspices of the Society here. I would like (and so would she) to have her go to your Department. Can she have a school at once and where?  Yr easy reply will much oblige  Yrs Truly, F. W. Bird
