1895: A visit to Milton

1895-11-05

In this letter, J.G. describes visiting the family of his former teacher, the Rev. James Hattrick Lee, and his family, at the Milton Academy.  He notes that "Mrs. Lee asked what I was taking at Harvard, and Mr. Lee kept a carefull silence when I did not say Latin or Greek."  He mentions that Billy, the Lee's son, is working for a competition medal given in Chicago for the best design for a public liberary."

J.G. looks forward to a concert by the operatic soprano Nellie Melba, and upcoming performances by the German Opera.
