My son has been more benefited by your
instruction than by any he has ever before
received. You have taught him to study,

VIRGINIUs DABNEY, Esq,
MY DEAR The lapse of another year
enables me to speak more decidedly as to the
merits of your system of education and it
is no less my duty than my pleasure to say
that both as to literary culture and moral
training do not believe there is q better
school within the limits of Virginia. You
have evidently the happy talent of stimulat-
ing a fondness for study in your scholars,
whilst you lose no opportunity of quicken
ing their sensbilities for all that is high or
honorable in life. / continue to congratu-
late myself that my SON was placed under
your charge, as his progress in all respects
has met my warmest hopes, and feel that
it would be unjust in me to withhold this
voluntary tribute to your excellence as o
teacher.
Wishing you great and deserved success,
am, sir with high respect and great regard,
Faithfully your friend,
b. JOHNSON BARBOUR.
