San Francisco, Cal., March 7, 1905.

President David S. Jordan,
President of Stanford University,
Stanford, Cal.

My dear Pres. Jordan:

Your letter of November 14th has been
returned to me from the Philipines, containing two accounts
against young Quiogue, and I have sent the same to my corres-
pondent in Manila and have requested him to endeavor to collect
the same and remit the money. On hearing from him I will
communicate with you.

I am very deeply grieved at the death of Mrs. Stanford,
and hope that the unfortunate rumors afloat will be found to
be unfounded. I hope you will have a safe return from the
trip you are now taking to Honolulu. Within a very short time
I hope to have the pleasure of seeing you.

Very sincerely,

Aylett R. Cotton, Jr.

Address, Parrott Bldg., S. F.
