5 I have got about $1.00 now. I shall get $4 or 5,00 in a week or two for sawing wood. Whether I can get along or not I hardly know, I ought to buy some furniture of the class who are about to graduate. I need some & could get it cheap at this time before they leave.

   I had a letter from Mr. Tash this morning, in answer to one I wrote him lately. I wrote something about going there this fall if he wanted me.

 But you see my tuition and room rent are going on here just the same as if I were present. That would be about $12.00 perhaps more. It would cost me no more for clothes here than there, and I could earn something, perhaps most
