I may add that you are quite at

Lubbock April 3./75

I am much obliged to you for yr letter of 31 ult. In my letter of Feb 8 my contention was that the acts of Mr Darwin had improperly [rectified] because corresponding with the Council office on the subject is disputewas entrusted to me as the manager of the schl, & the only recognized correspondent at the Council office, but of course it is not possible that Mr Darwin may not have clearly understood the matter in that light & of these an assurance from him to that effect & that no discourtesy was intended wld certainly meet the difficulty

The other point referring to the Inf: Schl wld then have to be enquired into. I much appreciate yr kind good wishes to restore a harmony whi: I never desired to be interrupted & thanking you for yr kind efforts in this direction, Believe me
