Dyersburg, Tenn. Feb. 1922.
Rev. and Mrs. G. L. Tyus,
Washington, Ark.
Dear friends:-
Some time during the
fall of 1920, ! wrote you stating
lust how well your daughter Miss
Edna Tyus, was filling her place as
teacher in Bruce High School, | re-
member that both of you answered
my letter and fully intended to re-
ply long before now but | am busy
all the time never having any vaca-
tion and then so an old saying goes
silence gives consent, your daughters
usefulness and popularity has in
creased to the extent that | have
no member of my faculty now nor
u! J9q sIsnb9 oqM pBq I9A9 | 9Asq
every particular She has the strong
est hold on the student body and is
the most highly esteemed by the peo-
pie of Dyersburg, generally of all my
teachers. All this is very pleasing
to me indeed but so to speak l am
now all "up in the air" Of course
you all know what is going on with
out my telling you and | have no
objection whatever of any ones mar
rying but really endorse such, and
in her case it is my opinion that she
is marrying a splendid man not only
, wise and fearless leader but high
toned Christian gentleman one who
is worthy of just such young woman
as she is; but on the other hand how
am | to get along without her serv-
ices if she decides to stop. Now J
