New Market April 20 Col. R. M. Manly [[Dear?]] Sir I have just received a letter from "J M. W" April 19. saying my "School Report had not been received" I mailed it to you on the 8th. You noted its reception on the 10th in a very clear and kind letter. I will hereon send a compliance. Accept my thanks for your pleasant letter of the 14th with $5 enclosed. You did not tell me, but I supposed it was the "Peabody friends" as which you alluded in your former letter.
