their homes: for tho: e noble
people on tjove Creek, ever
ready to bear with me the tri
als of a teacher's' life; for my
patron who. giving me credit
for a full discharge of my du
ty, expressed entire satisfac
tion; and lastly for my stu
denfs, who, after receiving
correction and reproof, re
tained all due respect and af
fection ; for these my attach
ment is too strong to be so
easily broken. 1 sometimes
