A Card as 10 Lees History of the
United States.
Richmond, Va, February 10.

Richmond, Va, February 10. 1886.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Recently a change was made In the
histories used by the schools OF Rich
mond. Shinns History beng substituted
for that of Barnes. Considerable sur
prise has been expressed By many OF our
friends that Lees History was not adopt
ed at this time. In talking over the
matter with them. I discover that the
situation is not generally understood, and
IN Justice to Lees History | think some
explanation Is due.
About two years ago Gong before Lees
History was publishsd) the State Board
OF Education made contract with two
northern houses 70 supply the histories
used In the schools of Virginia for a
term of four years. Until that contract
expires all histories used In the schools
of Virginia must be supplied by one OF
these two houses. When II was decided
to dispense with the use OF Barnes's His
tory there was no choice but to select
another history published by these firms.
and shinn's was selected as being the
least Objectionable. There II no question
ia our minds about the fact that II the
board had been free to consider the merits
Of Lees History Il would have been Sc
lected In preference to any Of the others
A q textbook Lees History Is proving
wonderfully successful. We are daily adj
vised Of new adoptions. and are receiving
hundreds OF enthusiastic letters from the
most prominent and successful educators
In the country, heartily endorsing the

told by DIR. Shields THAI IL he ever had

totally blind. he wrote his mother. and
she telegraphed for him to come home
Immediately. The authorities would not
let him come, and telegraphed his mother
that ne was perfectly well.

he had declined to take the prescriptions

admitted that he had lain abed pretend
