Dear Sir
Yours of yesterday is at hand, Mr. Edmonds County Supt. is 
ready and anxious to go to work, but says that he is not instructed whether he is required to give bond or the 
amt of his bond, or who approves his bond. In other words he is entirely unacquainted with the new school
law and desires to be informed as to his duty.  He has written several letters to Dr. Claud and I hope he soon
will get the new school system thoroughly at work in this county. [[strikethrough]] soon [[/strikethrough]] I would like very much to get at
least one teacher from the North for this place if possible. - over
