Won’t you write me? I am reminded of yon especially to-day by receipt of a notice from the bank that the loan which I have been carrying down there on your account is due this week. I shall have to renew it, of course, with the necessary interest charges; and I cannot help feeling that as a matter of economy if for no other reason this obligation ought to be taken up by you at the earliest possible date. So long as I hold the note you are compelled. Of course to pay interest which means just that much extra on your expenses. I feel sure that if your father understood the situation thoroughly he would be the first one to wish to get rid of this extra burden. If you have not already done so. won’t you take the matter up with him at once? I dislike to write him myself but I really feel that I ought to if you are not able or willing to make the matter clear to him. Let me hear from you and tell me frankly how you are getting along with your work. Mrs. Hall spoke to me only the other day, and I had to admit that I know practically nothing about your work or progress during the current school year.

Just so soon as I can find the time I will go over your accounts and make out a detailed statement for you on that you may know just where you stand. I hope you don’t think that I am trying to shirk any proper responsibility in asking you to take over for yourself the conduct of your business affairs. If I felt that I could be of any real help to you in continuing to serve as cashier I would not for a moment hesitate to keep the job. As it is, I really do not see what is gained by the present arrangement. Further, it would undoubtedly be more satisfactory to you to know from day to day just where you stood financially. How are things going for you in the new life and environment?

I don’t think I need to tell you why I am distressed. The fact is, I am badly broken up over it, for I didn’t believe that you were going to give me any occasion for worry during your New Haven course. After what I have been going through with Chow I have been counting on your good record to more than overcome the disappointments recorded there. Don’t, I beg of you, go back on us now. You have left a fine record behind you here at Andover, even if it has not been over-brilliant in scholarship. I don’t expect you to lead the class, but I do expect you to maintain a clean and satisfactory record well above the passing grade. For goodness’ sake don’t allow yourself to get classed at the very outset of your college career with the loafers and dead-beats who are the bane of every college community, and in the majority of cases of little value in life after they get out. Write me soon and tell me that you are getting those deficiencies rapidly cleared up. I shall not rest easy until I get a report of this kind.
