In January last, I am glad to say, I was able to open our Mission school. We have a comfortable little school building and an able and consecrated teacher in the person of Miss Cornie S. Young. I am afraid, on account of the smallness of the salary, I shall not be able to keep her. If the school should be closed it would be a great drawback to the work at Pittsboro. I go to this Mission once a month.
