Show you, the experience of managing such a school even for a year, will bring its advantages to you, to counterbalance in part the extra care. Your compensation will be $100 more. <br><br> The reason you did not receive Mr. Caskey's letter as soon as you did mine, is because he directed his letter to Virden. I have been praying over this matter ever since it came up, since it is the Lord's work I am sure he will guide us. <br><br> Now the next thing is to find the right man to take your place in the College department. Do you think of any class-mate or fellow student whom you could recommend ? I have just written to Albert's Teacher's Agency in Chicago. They want a young man and one who has had some experience in High School or Academy. The salary will be a thousand dollars for a single man. Its important that he should be an earnest Christian man, since our work is on a team basis. Albert and Emil will be in the Sophomore class and I think they will persuade Roy to come. I think there will be 5 or 6 Freshman. Roderick wishes to come back to graduate. So the prospect is very good. <br><br> Heartily your friend, <br><br> R.G. McNiece <br><br> The College will open Sept. 9th.* <br><br><br> * The sentence is written vertically along the left side of the page. |
