Tappahannock Essex Co Oct 15th '69.

Mr Manly,

Dear Sir,

Dr. S. H. Robinson informs me that he have not received any pay from from you for two months. He says, furthermore, that the rent have been paid monthly, he thinks, that you have stoped the rent. I should like to know about this, for if the rent is discontinued I shall be forced to abolish the school, for I cannot get funds enough to pay rent, board & clothes myself if the rent can (the rent is paid) not be paid, [[strikethrough]] be continued [[strikethrough]]. I could continue the school, if not I shall have to abolish it.

With all these considerations please answer by return mail, by so doing you will oblige your friend, teacher.

Richmond Robinson.
