After due deliberation and consideration of the statements you made to me this afternoon and a most careful study of my motives, my aims my duty to you, and to those whom I would benefit and to myself, I have concluded to take a class and do the best I can.

I thought to take six but shall try to add several to that number. My labors compared with your own or some of your other students may seem small but having done all I could shall offer no apology and feel comforted in the assurance that God knows all.

I shall be most truthful in my acknowledgement of all you have done for me and shall let my life prove my gratitude in most lovingly forgiving all wrongs even as I wish to be forgiven and would only be tooAs Written:to glad to cooperate with you in this work but having ever been set aside as “small account” do not aspire to the position but shall try to fill the place God has put me in and thereby honor you even as I do now and have ever done.
