SALEM, NORTH CAROLINA.

I have taken YOUNG PEOPLE from the first number, and I like it very

much. I have written one letter to the Post-office Box, but I

thought I would write again. My friend Howard R. has written too.

We two have formed a printing firm under the name of P. & R. We

made four dollars clear profit, with which we bought each a pair of

roller skates. We have over three dollars in our bank now. Some of

my playmates and I have formed a club under the name of Holiday

Club, and some of my boy friends and I have formed a military

company by the name of Home Guards. We parade in the academy

play-grounds. The other day we fought almost all the battles of the

Revolution.
