Beloit College May 31, '65

Mrs. Julia A. Lapham

Dear Madam

Yr. favor of the 22d. inst
with the accompanying slips came duly to
hand. Prof. Nason who has sale charge of our
cabinet is absent for the Summer, I presume
we might spare something to help out the collection
for the Fair, but without consulting him, we can
not make the selections & shall therefore have to
forego the pleasure of contributing in that form.

Our people are interested in the [?] & will
make a money donation to swell the general
receipts

Very respectfully yours

A. L. Chapin
