CINCINNATI, O. Oct. 6th, 1868

Rev. R. M. Manly,
Supt. of Education,

Dear Bro - 

I have been absent visiting the conferences for several weeks, which will account for my neglecting your letters - I will furnish you the teacher as promised and will write for Transportation for her today - Dr. Walden says that she is No. 1 - a lady of refinement and culture and a capital primary teacher - I have never seen her - But Dr. Walden's judgement is usually correct - So be patient a week or two and she will be with you - Aid us all you can - 

Respectfully Yours
R. S. Rust
