Clinton, N.Y.
Dear Chan:
Thank you for your good note of April 14.
I am sorry that it was necessary for me to drop Hamilton from my list this year, but, as I explained to your good president, I simply had to cut down these out-of-town trips; and Hamilton is a long way off. I did tell Dr. Ferry, however, that I would try to go a year later if he would let me off at this time.
Mr. Bancroft tells me that so far no boys hare reported at the office that they are heading for Hamilton. I am worry that this is so, for I do not know a higher grade college in the country and I wish more of our boys were inclined to look upon it with favor. The fast is that it is a bit out of the way, as you know, and I imagine that the location has as much as anything xxx with the seeming lack of interest.
With all good wishes to you, believe me
Ever sincerely yours
