President David S. Jordan
President of Stanford University
Stanford, Cal.

My Dear Pres. Jordan:

Your letter of November 14th has been returned
to me from the Philpines, containing two accounts against young
Quiogue and I have sent the same of my correspondent in Manila and
have requested him to endeavor to collect the same and remit the
money. On hearing from him I will communicate with you.

I am very deeply grieved at the death of Mrs. Stanford,
and hope that the unfortunate rumors afloat will be found to be
unfounded. I hope you will have a safe return from the trip you
are now taking to Honolulu. Within a very short time I hope to
have the pleasure of seeing you.

Very sincerely,
Aylett R. Cotton, Jr.
