RENSSELAER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE PALMER C. RICKETTS, DIRECTOR.
Troy, N. Y., July 26, 1907

Prof. Cecil K. Bancroft,
Phillips Academy,
Andover, Mass.

Dear Sir:-

I have your letter of July 24th.

In consequence of your letter we will permit Mr. Yung to enter the Institute without examination in all subjects except English. If he passes our course in English, which is given in the first term of the Sophomore year, we will pass off his condition in English. Since he is a foreigner we will be satisfied if he knows a considerable amount of English at the end of our course in that subject.

Will you be kind enough to communicate this information to Mr. Yung.
Thanking you for the trouble you have taken in this connection I am, (Signed)
Palmer C. Ricketts.
