April 5th 1886.
We appreciate your kindness in sending the telegramEditorial Note: This telegram is not extant.. I did not receive it in time to reach BostonEditorial Note: Boston, Massachusetts before Sunday, but hope to be present at the opening of the next class. The desire of my heart is to go to you and receive your personal instruction. Please say something, when you write us again, to convince my husband, that your instruction is much more valuable than that of your students. I know it is so. He wishes me to go to Mrs. Choate where the tuition is much less, and does not understand the importance of your personal teaching.
Please notify me as early as possible.
