Mr.John Morrison
Boston, Mass.

Dear Sir:

I am sorry to have to advise that your boy’s work thus far this term has been far from satisfactory to the school authorities, and that as a result we have deemed it necessary to withdraw from him for the present the privilege of out-of-town and evening excuses, which we are accustomed to grant with some freedom to boys whose work and standing are satisfactory. We trust that this step may prove to be all that is necessary to bring about the improvement we desire, and that our next reports to you may be of a much more favorable nature.

Very truly yours.
