Age 14, suitably placed, employed at general work, healthy, attends Roman Catholic Church, good character,

Terms-$12 for second year. This lad is getting along very well, and should receive a useful training here, as the Dunlops are industrious people. He has grown considerably since I last saw him. The family appear to be much attached to him.
