Transcription

Mrs. Harriet M. Young

Dear Mrs. Young:

Your letter relating to your brother’s standing has just been received. I do not know what more any of us can do beyond continuing our admonitions, warnings and words of encouragement and continuing our prayer but the boy may soon show signs of developing maturity and wisdom. In spite of his size and appearance, John is still a good deal of child and this seems to be at the bottom of all his troubles. It is hard to look at him and believe this period of extreme youth xx can go on such longer. I am hopeful that we shall soon be able XXX

Perhaps summer tutoring may help the situation. This we can tell better at the end of the school year.
