Round Hill Va
Mr O. L. Emeric
We have just been informed that there is a vacancy in the primary department caused by the resignation of Miss Phoeby Garrett. My recommendation is sent as an emergency having not heard that the vacancy existed more than 10 days, which not only is a surprise, but the thing has thrown her friends into some confusion for lack of time. The lady whose petition is herein found, is a lady above reproach, so considered by those who have known her since she was a small girl. It is with great pleasure that I include these lines with her petition. If I had had time I am sure that the patrons of our school would generally indorse her.
Very truly, O. L. Beavers
