University of Virginia Library

Dear Doctor Culbreth: Your favor of the 23rd ins., enclosing your
check for ten dollars as a contribution to the new Chapel at the University,
and generously offering to make a further subscription in a certain contingency,
was duly received yesterday afternoon. The check has been
turned over to the Ladies Chapel Aid Society, and I am authorized to
convey to you their grateful thanks for your actual contribution, for the
promise of further aid if such should be needed, and last but by no means
least for your generous expressions of filial devotion to Alma Mater and
of your purpose to do all in your power to advance her interest. In all of
this I cordially join, and am with sincere regard,
