I remember you. I was here when you called on us and I shewed you some of my work. There were but five girls in school when you were here as it was about the elase? of vacation. I worked half of the collar that will be sent you; and Eleanor North who has since removed from this Station worked the other half. I thank you very much for the interest you took in this school.

She came on from the North this last fall.
