31 CALVERT Co., Nov. 29, 1865. The two boys are with me still. They attended Sabbath .school up to the time it closed. They go to church every Sabbath when weather permits. Their disposition and hab- its are good, but in various degrees. O—'s aptness at his employments I never saw his superior, but A—'s, I must say, is quite the reverse; I can't get any thing out of him unless I am always with him.

His conduct is still very good. I have had very lit- tle trouble with him—not more than with my own children, indeed I think he must be an exception to the general class of boys at your Institution. He is very willing to learn to work and is quite industrious. He is apt at his hooks and shows a willingness to he taught the catechism and other re- ligious exercises.
