You have a very pleasant opportunity to study English history, and you
must write to the Post-office Box again, and tell us more about the
places you visit.

I read the letters in the Post-office Box every week. I study
geography, spelling, arithmetic, writing, and Latin. I have gone to
school here for almost ten months. I have had a nice black and
white rabbit for almost a year. I will try to get some wild ones
this spring, and tame them. Some of us boys take our dinners out in
the woods on Saturdays, and have a splendid time. In cold weather
we build a fire.
I will give a book entitled _Tel Tyler at School_, 750 mixed
foreign stamps, several foreign postal cards, a piece of petrified
honey-comb, two shells from St. Augustine, Florida, and a pebble
from Amsterdam, New York, for sixty stamps from Alsace-Lorraine,
Angola, Antigua, Azores, Bolivia, Bermuda, British Honduras,
Ceylon, Chili, Costa Rica, Dominica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras,
Ionian Isles, Labuan, Lagos, Liberia, Malta, Nevis, Nicaragua,
Orange States, Paraguay, Persia, Salvador, San Marino, Shanghai,
St. Lucia, Trinidad, and Virgin Isles. Stamps must be in good
condition.
