South Hadley, Aug 11, 1848.
My dear Miss Graves,
Won't you like to go as far from here as to Missouri to teach? Can you teach vocal music? Won't you be willing to go as far as Kentucky? I have a kind of application from both of these states, but there is some doubt about it. Please let me know what you won't wish to do, if I shant write to you.
Affectionately yours,
Mary Lyon
