My relations with my association are of the most agreeable nature and nothing has ever occured or likely to occure to distroy that mutual confidence which must necessarily exist between teacher and employer. Financial considerations is the motive for desiring a change. As my salary is but $15 per month less 5 for wood during the cold weather. I have been very successful as a teacher and I am respected in this place by white and colored. I am a nothern man 27 years old borned and educated at Philadelphia, and am prepared to do my duty to god & my people. Hoping to hear from you as soon as posible I remain Respectfully
