Transcription
Hello Law — away off there in South America. I am principal of the Prescott. That is pretty near as big as going to S.A. I assume my duties tomorrow — Monday. I left Friday a common grade teacher, arose Saturday morning and saw by the Journal that I was something more. I am going to have a new dress on the strength of it.
Miss Bugam is going to be married in two weeks. She expects to teach most if not all the year.
Mrs Wright's sister and mother are here for the winter. Mr. Wright has to get a bigger Sunday dinner than ever, now.

Helen has jumped a half year in school and is in the 2d A — now. She will be out of the [?] next January, in the 3d B. Psyche was on the verge of St. Vilies dance when she came home this summer, but she seems as well as ever now.
The baby is a clipper. She can say anything that anyone can. The club has organized again. It won't interfere with your buttons this year. You can use the Thomas down there for needle & thread. Bring home a flag of Argentina — a small one. — S.D.
