In answer to yours of July 28th
I would rather say that it is
possible to Rive very much
detail regarding an In-
of this kind in one letter.
However, I will try lo answer our
questions. I will first give you a
little history of this Institution. It
established in 1855. We have
about boys at present. We
have about out on leave of ab
all over the State. Our

sooner released. We keep them
two years, when if they have fair
homes, we send them home on

have at present a year

running expenses. It costs about
per year per capita. With a
smaller the cost would
be a little more capita. We have
employers, and school rooms.
Our are in school hours
each day and alternation. Our
Institution is partially on the

All our time is
en to training tho boys in such a
way to benefit them In after
life. We plan on having our boys
self supporting when they leave
the school, or nearly so according
to ability. The boys who
