Hon Chos Manly

Sir
I have received your Power of Attorney appointing me agent and Attorney for the University of NC I will accept the appointment It always affords me a pleasure to serve my Alma Mater

About a year ago I addressed you about a town lot in Tarboro; since that time now claimants with better title have sprung up and I have abandoned the matter as a bad case

Very respectfully
RR Bridges
