My dear Mrs. Jordan,

Words fail me when I try to thank you, and my other friends on the Faculty, for your remembrance of me on my birthday.

The pleasure was so unexpected that it was doubly a pleasure, and it reached me at a time when, and in a place where, any expression of friendship from the outside was more than unusually welcome. For I received your letter on the morning of my birthday, at Vina, where, as you know, I have come to try and straighten out some very unpleasant troubles that had arisen; and you will be glad to know that with what I firmly believe assistance from a higher power than earth can give, the trouble has been overcome and matters are now running smoothly again.

When I receive the picture I shall take pleasure in hanging it in my room where it will be a perpetual reminder of the bond of union that exists between the kind friends who gave it and me.

I will write to Professor Newcomer my appreciation of his beautiful sonnet.

With heartfelt thanks,

Your friend,

Jane L. Stanford,
Vina, Aug. 30th, 1898.
