West Point, Dec 7th 1869

Rev. R.M. Manly

Yours of the 3rd is received.  Mrs. Lowell sent the $4.00 to pay the rent for November and Mr. Davis paid Mr. Anderson yesterday, and got a receipt.  I will keep the $4.00 you sent and pay for December.  My school gets along quite well.

I had 15 pupils last night and they improve.  I have herd quite a number are getting ready to attend school this winter. The people are poor and their children are not suitable clothed to come to school.

Yours truly
O. Kelly
