My dear son,
Your letter of last week reached us yesterday, and I enclose $13, which is all I have on me at present. I may sell the other pig next week and make up the balance of what you wanted. I will probably have to wear the old buffalo overcoat to meetings again this winter, but that doesn’t matter so long as you are getting education.

Now, regarding that boat - padding suit, and that baseball suit, and that bathing suit, and that roller- rinkturn suit, and that lawn-lennis suit, mind. I don’t care about the money, because you say a young man can’t really educate himself thoroughly without them, but I wish you’d send home what you get through with this fall, and I’ll wear them through the winter under my other clothes. We have a much colder winter here than we used to, or else I’m failing in bodily health.
