promised to call and see you when he next visited Richmond. I do not wish you to think that I want to teach the children for nothing but the love I have for teaching, but to let you know that I have no objection to teaching them if by this means I can relieve my own circumstances for I am an orphan entirely dependent on poor relations for a support.

Address as before Respectfully M H Daniel June 18th 1869
