the school room to be placed in a good state of repairs. I return herewith the copy of lease, kindly furnished by you, in pursuance to my request. On the 27th was with the Sabbath school of Pearisburg. Also spent the following day with the week day school, hoping to find it prospering under their new teacher, but was sadly disappointed. While he is a very good young man, "Col", yet he has no control over his scholars, and I do not think he will answer for that place. He might be useful as an assistant teacher, in one of the larger schools. I spent several days with the people trying to encourage them; and returned home, finding a large mass of office business to attend to at the close of the month. From some of the schools, I have cheering news -- others, very discouraging. I may write you shortly in regard to several of them.

Very Respectfully
