Friend:

I expect to take the 7-20 train Saturday morning for the meeting. Shall come to Baltimore, and probably stop at [[underlined]] Barnum's [[/underlined]] overnight. I shall go to Magnolia, and expect to find some passage from there to the place. You know I have never been up that way, and do not know the locality. I shall rely on you to put me through.

Respectfully Yours
(Sgd.) John Kimball
Supt. Education.

N.B. If it be not well that I should go to Magnolia, let me know.
