How much he did forthose alluded to and afterwards, for hundreds of others, I canonly guess by what he did for me. To him and hence to Thet-ford Academy I am very greatly indebted. He found me justleaving school and beginning the study of law in the ofiice ofEsquire Howard. He said to me, Farnsworth, this will notdo, you must go to college, and to college I went. But forthis kindly advice it is almost certain that I should have beena more or less (probably less) successful lawyer, not to say,pettifogger. I wish you the most complete success in your efforts to securea general meeting of the old boys and the old girls. Of coursemany of the younger ones will be there. Would that I could bewith you. My friends will see that I can hardly be expected to. REV. \V. A. FARNSWORTH,
