Friend: I can aid to the amount of $100.00, in that Hendon Hill building. The bill must come in as material furnished to aid in construction of the building. We cannot aid in buying furniture outright. If you can arrange it in that way all right, only, the thing should be done without delay. I hope you, and yours are well.

Please remember me to Mrs. and daughter.

Respectfully Yours,
(sgd) John Kimball,
Supt. Education
