Clarksville, Texas, Aug 23 1892

Martha,
  Our school commences on Sept 5th so you had better
send Maggie so she can get here by that time.  I will meet her
in Marshall.  I think it best for her to start when the school
does & she can board until we get a house built.  When you get
ready to come you can do so & if the house is not ready you can
stay on the River until it is finished   it will be 1st Dec or
1st Janry before it will be done.  Send Maggie to Olla & let her
take the train on Friday Sept 2nd for Alexandria & let her take
the night train at Alexandria on Friday night & that will put her
in Marshall about noon on Saturday & I will be there & if she
fails to take that train I will wait in Marshal for her on the
next train which will leave Alexandria on Saturday the 3rd.  My
health is still good.  Love to all
                                     Yours
                                     A H Splawn
