I add likewise the Farm Account, for the year ending 31st 

 March, 1844, with which the superintendent was kind enough 

 to favor me. The result is encouraging, and the good done is 

 certain. The present superintendents and teachers are father 

 and mother, son and daughter, of the same family ; and their 

 subsistence is included in the charges against the school.
