I am so glad to find out that you really have got the rank of Principal and a new appointment. You thoroughly deserved to get both. I suppose that you will soon be leaving us. Well, you must come over here all the more frequently until you do go. With hearty good wishes.
Yours very sincerely,
K.
Reply to the Letter
My dear K.
It was most kind of you to write me such a cordial letter. Of course, I feel as pleased as I can at the result of the whole affair. I won't be leaving England for another six weeks, so we'll often meet again. I must thank you most deeply for the great encouragement you have given me. I don't know what I should do without it.
