Dear Doctor,--

Your letter of the 5th inst. has just now been re- s
ceived. We are very glad to hear from you, and to know that you .
will be able and happy to take this young man and talk to him about .
the advantages of your system. “e

 

This boy's name is Gale Botts, nicknamed "Polly". Last
night, Mrs. Taylor was talking to his mother, and they are planning on
him being in Lawrence on Monday, the 15th of April, and I'll have Mrs.
Taylor bring him to your office. It will probably be in the morning,
as she will have plenty of time then, and it is quite early when they
get there.

We sincerely hope that you will be able to interest him
in going to school there. If we can ever get students to going to K. U.
once more it will help us get others interested in the future. We have
two boys there now, one Russell Mount, in the Pharmacy department, and
another is a pre medic, but he has been away for several years, so I
don't know whether he is there now or not. However this is a very strong
pro Kansas aggie town, and the faculty on the High School, and the Board
itself are much Pro Aggie, and they heve the children during the years
when they can formulate their desire for certain colleges.

Thanking you for your consideration in this matter, I
aM y

Very truly ta 7
