Transcribe Hill, Franklin. Letter to Ward, Henry A. (1876-03-06)

I have written to him to release me from it entirely. Should he do so, perhaps I could give you a week or two, but I should have to charge tou the same as my regular pay here, $7.00 per diem.* You sees it is the old three corner game of last summer, with Orton instead of Newberry.

  We are projecting large improvements in our Museum

which if they go through, will keep me in full work until commencement (June 28) and perhaps longer, only I must be in Ohio June 30th, whatever happens. And so I leave it.

  Please remember me to all in the house and

shops and believe me Very truly yours Franklin C. Hill Item. My cat still thrives.

We have just received a full set of the Rocks of N. J. from State Geologist. </u Hill > March - 76
