Bristol Goodson, Va. Dec 4th, 1869 R.M. Manley, Esq. Supt. Ed. Va. Sir: - When you were here, I think you proposed to send me a few copies of Quackenbos' Eng. grammar for use in my school. I find that we can not obtain such grammars in this place and as I desire to form a class of about six in number, I have decided to request that you will if possible send 1/2 doz of these books and whatever the cost may be, I will see that the amt is paid. My report for November was duly forwarded and schools matters progressing favorably. The people were well pleased with your remarks and suggestions. I shall hope to receive those vouchers soon, which you mentioned when you were here. Very Respectfully, Thomas A. Cushman
