User-Contributed Transcription Twenty five miles up the river Oh.Nov 18th 1852 Mr. Kendall: Respected sir friend and teacherAt a late hour this evening I hasted to communicate a few lines to you after a short absence. it is a pleasure for me to communicate to those whom I deem as friends, and well-wishers. I have always had much respect and love for my teachers - , whose kind admonition is not forgotten by me, let things change as they may. There is always a lasting impression made upon the mind of a pupil whilst laboring under the advice and teaching of the Prof - which will last so long as the thread of life may hold out. And it is truly sweet friend Kendall to ponder over the scenes of school boy's days, and count its many joys of heartfelt glee. I think my school days have been my happiest days
