Saturday and try and get a watch.  I got the 
loan of one for two weeks from John [C...alt?] it is
an open face and keeps time right well.  I only 
taught three days this week. I did not do anything
on monday and on tuesday went for coal.  I have 
twenty two scholars on the list and this week I 
expect to have as many more.  I paid $2.25 for [coal?] 
and $2.50 [85?] for a hat i bought a knife a one 
of them broke i tried to get in town a [key?] to 
Parks Arithmetic. So you can see that my money 
is coming to [gather?] on a little small [pile?].
There is no chance of buying a watch down 
here as they hardly know what to ask for 
one.  $40 would buy a good watch and that is 
more money than i like to have in a piece 
of furniture These Lincoln Times.  I want [Pap?] 
to try and get me a watch. until i come home 
try and get Philip [?] watch but dont
give him any more than i offered him which 
is 20 Dollars.  Lucinda says that [Pap?] and 
Kate shall bundle up and come down to 
see us as soon as you can get off.  I must 
close for this time as my paper is [done?] 
for.  From your Brother and [?] [?] 
we all write in sending our love to you all
