Dear Mary:
Thank you for your note received this morning. Mr. Robinson has taken such pains to plan for your first year at Elmira that I think it would be a mistake not to follow his judgment. For the first year I am sure that residence in a nice home would be in every way advantageous; nor can I believe for a minute that such an arrangement would interfere with your studies. Indeed I think you would probably do better work at the start under such a scheme than you would if you were thrown into a large dormitory.
I am sending your letter on to Mr. Robinson, however, and will abide by his final judgment in the matter. Of course if his plan does go through, the room already assigned you should be given up at once and the college authorities promptly notified of the change, so that the room can be disposed of before the new year gets under way.
Please wire me on receipt of this letter just when you plan to leave for Elmira.
Very sincerely yours,
