Your letters of the 6, and 10, instsEditorial Note: These letters are not extant. were both received. Will you kindly pardon delay in reply, and accept my thanks.

The request to see you was made before the much lamented action by the C. S. Association, in the hope of averting it.

Now I can only offer my deep regret at what has happened, and beg you and all who think me a wizard to continue to grant me charity, for I cannot possibly admit that I am consciously guilty of deliberate plotting in malice As Written: malace as intimated.

I do own however with profound sorrow that much error has appeared in my career especially in the manner of judgment of yourself. Now I see you and mankind in a different light than ever before and I am bound to uphold your ascended being, whatever may be our personal relations in time and sense.

I must reassert that I have not, nor do I to my knowledge "take up" any person however much relief persons may seem to get in taking me up.

I am exceedingly sorry that some students are unnecessarily reporting this matter, for I feel that it can be adjusted yet.

I most earnestly thank you and the afflicted parties for the great love shown me in the fact that I am "self-suspended" instead of expelled from the Association.

I do hope that finally I may merit a home in that heaven of my vision - your retreat from all warfare and to this end at your leisure As Written: leasure may we there meet.
