1868. — The school has been kept up during the past year, with an average attendance of thirty-three scholars. Their general conduct and advancement in literary knowledge have been satisfactory. We have very recently received no- tice from the council of the Shawnees that they desire to terminate the contract under which the school has been maintained at the close of the present quarter. Most of the children in the school are orphans. Many of them without home or friends to take care of them, i...f deprived of a home at the mission. The commit- tee, therefore, feels the importance and necessity of endeavoring to maintain a school or asylum for such children, to such extent at least, as can be sustained by the farm. 1869. — At the termination of the contract with the council the school closed, in November, 1868, and most of the children were withdrawn. Such as had no friends' establishment in KANSAS. 265 other home remained. The council soon afterwards desired it reopened under same contract, and this was done in January, 1869, and continued to do well un- til April, when the council again changed its mind and the school was closed.
