My Dear Daughter
I received
only today your mothers letter of the 20th of Nov enclosing the reports of the standing of your brothers & yourself in school. I was much delighted to receive them and as you were all mark- ed perfect in writing I thought I would write you each a short letter in hopes that you would all soon reply and I would then know what a perfect mark in writing meant. I hope your mother will often enclose the reports and I trust I shall have the happiness to find the standings always as good as it was on the 20th of November.
