User-Contributed Transcription Charleston, Apr. 12, 1870Sister dearI must put you off with a short letter this time. It seems unjust, but I am fairly at work and must husband my time. I have 8 young men under my motherly care. I do not see any indications of trial in the way of governing. Hurrah! aren't I glad of that? But I have to study. To go all at once into Algebra and Geometry, after letting them lie still for half a dozen years is no play. What would J D. Lewis think of this poor cousin, if he knew she had to rise at cock-crowing in order that her mind might conbat those of the dull African? Yet such is the truth. sideways at top:If you direct Box 175 it will be sufficent.
