18 Stearns Road,

Brookline, Mass.

April 3, 1905.

My dear Dr. Jordan:

Before closing let me give voice to the sympathy I feel for you and the University in the loss of poor Mrs. Stanford. I know of no death since that of my own parents that has so affected me. I had the privilege of meeting her personally in Benares and my memory of the kind and motherly reception she gave me made me feel her death most keenly. It is good to see how widely she was honored, and how universally she is mourned.

Very sincerely yours,

D. Brainerd Spooner.
