Miss Laura Caay,,
Richmond, ky.
Dear miss Laura:

Thank you for check from Mrs. b'ennett, for which I am
mailing her receipt. I will state that hou desire your two checks
to go to Ohio in sending them.

By writing Mrs. Bartlett I have finally gotten word from
Mr. Marsh, who is in Lawrenceburg, that his Wife is still ill, but
he hopes to go to work in a day or two.

In View of the fact that a majority of the teachers’ institutes
are over this week, I have come to the conclusion that it is better
business for me to let Mr. Marsh go and to send Miss Glenn down
into south—western Kentucky. It has the added advantage that mrs.
McCormick pays one half of Miss Glenn's expenses and I can't get
railroad passes over the Illinois Central or another short railroad
line in that section, which we will have to use mainly; so I have
just put in a telephone call to Mr. Marsh, so as to take this up with
him.

Miss Van Pelt has been a little uncertain about her winter's

arrangements. If I were strenuous enough, I think I might yet inveigle

her into giving up a teaching position and taking up suffrage work, but
am slightly afraid to take the responsibility of her continuous employ-
ment and she also feels somewhat of a moral obligation to continue in

the Frankfort position. I am keeping her, however, the two weeks

 

 iVIiSS C 0

longer that she is willing to give.

I don't know whether you feel that we ought to take people right
on for continuous work,and am writing you of these decisions, so that
I may yet upset them if your judgment is very strongly the other way.
Perhaps I can arrange, however, to get Mr. Marsh for irregular work
at $2.00 a day. Do you think that would be desirable?

Cordially yours,

m. qufi f3).

Also i have tliis morning heard from Mr; Kennedy, the Nebraska
Congressman, that he can't come. I told you, did I not, that Rabbi Hise
could not come? I have also heard from Mrs. icCormick by writing her that,

Dear Hrs. uraham: ,

1n a letter received from Miss Clay yesterday occurs the
fOIIOWlng peregraph“ "At Owensboro we voted to accept the wouan's Journal
proposition E. -At the time we supposed it consisted necessarily of only
‘the taking_of 1/8 of a column of‘space, for which we were to pay $35.00
a year. But afiterwards Miss Blackwell told me she thought it included two
other chauses, ~ 100 papers in bundles weeksy. for which we were to pay
$137.00 annually, and 50 new subscriptions, on which we were to receive
50% discount or premiums. It was in regard to these last two points
that I wrote to Miss Ryan. i have not yet received her answer, and l shell
be very glad if.we find we are not bound to fill these last two requisitions.
I will let you know her answer when I get it.“ We will let Miss Clay
, work the thing.out if possible. I will get her to send you on the result
of her labors. In-the meantime, I will say if you have a piece of good
news send it on to Miss Ryan.» It you haven‘t, don't worry about it. We
are not making much news just now. )
