[[underlined]] Corson Col. Robt. R. [[/underlined]]
Philadelphia, Pa.
Dear Sir:
Please find enclosed teachers pay account for December. Miss [[underlined]] R. L. Alexander [[/underlined]] neglected to report, and her name is not included in the list.
I have added the amount which it costs for revenue stamps on teacher's checks. If you choose to pay this it will save deducting two cents on every twenty dollars.
Very Respectfully, Yours,
W. L. Van Derlip
Bvt. Maj. and Supt. Education, D.C. &c.
