Office General Superintendent Schools.
Washington, D.C. January 14th 1869

Bvt Lt. Col James Thompson,
Supt. Education,

Dr. Sir:
In my late note to you of Dec 26, accompanying letter of Mr. Logan a clerical error occurs.

Instead of "if you will make the certificate" &c. it should read "if  the secretaries of the various societies will make" &c.

Please do what you can to have this done promptly.  The circular was sent merely to inform you of what is wanted, in order to secure your cooperation.

Yours &c. Very resp'y,
J.W. Alvord
Genl. Supt. Schools

P.S. Your repost will also be needed to corroborate certificate
