To A.B.

You are hereby required to send your child C.D., between the ages of seven and thirteen years, to a public [or Native] school; and if you fail to do so you will be summoned before a Stipendiary Magistrate or two Justices of the Peace to answer for such neglect.

If your said child is (1) under efficient instruction otherwise than at a public [or Native] school, or (2) if it is prevented from attending school by sickness or unavoidable cause, or (3) if the road between your residence and the nearest public [or Native] school is not sufficiently passable, or (4) if you have obtained a certificate in writing from a Government Inspector of Schools or the headmaster of any public school that your child has reached the standard of education prescribed by the Regulations [or, if a Native child, has passed the Fourth Standard of the Native Schools Code], and if you satisfy the School Committee [or me, in the case of a Native school,] of any of these facts, you will receive a certificate exempting you from sending your child to school.

E.F.,

Secretary [or Clerk] to the School Committee of the District of
