Rt Rev dear Sir

I take great pleasure in responding to your invitation to be present at the laying of the Corner Stone of Our University on the 10th proximo, by saying D.V. I will come.

As I wish to examine the grounds I intend going there two or three days before the meeting of the Board. I shall have a little son with me to see the Corner Stone laid of the institution whose honors I hope he may win {as well?] - With revential regard I am dear Bishop

Faithfully yours
