Letter to Mr. Burton

Dated October 7, 1889

Page 3 of 4


I am writing to Mr. Butler,
the Mineralogist, to settle
with him about this last
instalment completing the series of specimens. He
is not a mere seller of
stones. I think I may tell
him that you are satisfied
with his collection - that you
have already done good work & gone at it
in the true Educational
spirit - & taught the boys
to collect specimens themselves
& in your Science classes
are going to give one on
Geology, & two Lectures
on Coal etc at an Institute.
- thus training the men & boys
