  Copy of Correspondence with Jos. McKeen Esq.

Northfield, Mass Aug 9th 1848 Mr McKeen Dear Sir

Your letter and statement of my account is duly received. I notice that the extra charge in my first term bill ^$26.25, for which I petitioned an abatement is continued. This charge, acknowledged an unreasonable one. I had not expected to pay and Res.? Woods gave me encouragement that it would be remedied. There are also some other things in the account which I do not understand. E.g. the balance of $.81 at the close of the year 1845. But though differing from my memoranda, I presume your books are correct. In the Bill for the Spring Term of '47 there is charged $3.18 for "Repairs." I was in College but about one week that term. It seems hardly fair when one is absent in addition to all the other charges as usual, to be taxed for repairs because the room one had occupied was broken in and his own books & other property removed or stolen.
