Transcription
My dear Mr. Stearns:
I am very sorry to have to inform you that Tommy Lee is reported as very deficient in Drawing, German, and Physics for the present term. I have not yet had an opportunity to talk with him and for that reason I do not know the reason for such a lapse. I shall endeavor to see him soon and try to ascertain the source of the trouble. It will be necessary for him to show a decided improvement if he is to successfully pass all of his examinations for the year. You say that he was a good student at Andover and should do well. If this is the case, it seems to me that there must be some underlying cause for his poor showing. I shall do my utmost to be of assistance to him and should be glad of any co-operation which you can give me.
Trusting that I may be able to make a better report after the next Freshman Faculty meeting, on May 10th, I am,
Very truly yours,
Registrar of the Sheffield Scientific School.
Dictated.
