Dear Brother: 

What say you to such pages as these? are they equal to yours? It will hardly do for me to tell you how much joy came with your better last evening, best you make your others as much like angel visits. Poor Anna passed a sad thanksgiving. She went mourning all the day for the loved ones far away. and quite disregarded my valuable self. As each day of last week passed without being her a letter, 'twas only her hair that prevented her from being a good specimen of the albino race can you guess why?

  I wish very much Sis could be here to enter in February next. It would be so much pleasanter for Anna and for herself than to wait till after Anna finishes. There is not yet so much required of those who enter as the Catalogue says. We wish to raise the standard of the school, and that is as we hope to make it another year. I have written to mother about it and if she does not get time to write soon, you tell me what the conclusion is. You will miss her, I know? but it seems to me the opportunity too good to be lost. Soon it will be your turn, my brother, improve all your present means, above.
