Dear Miss Jamieson:—For some 1111te

removal from our midst, at the end of
this term, came as an unwelcome sur-
prise: We can but bear testimony to
the pleasantness and profitableness to
us of that relationship, and we hope
that your experience may have been
somewhat similar. We have ever foulid
you anxious to correct our faults but
also ready to pardon; sympathize with
our troubles, patient with our follies
and always eager to help us take one
more step along the path of knowledge.
But the best testimony of all will be
found in the lasting influence for goad
exerted upon the lives of those with
whom you were in daily contact.
We feel greatly indebted to you for
Ole interest you have always taken in
our welfare and would have you accept
this token of cur esteem for you, and
hope that in the future it may stir up
pleasant memories. Our earnest desire
is that all your future efforts tray'
meet with well -merited success.
