Prof. Wu.lia.ms,
Forrest City, Aik.
1)eah Sir:—I find myself both
surprised and chagrined that jour
school does not appear on the list
of accredited schools in our new
catalogue. Your school was duly
accredited by unanimous vote of
Lhe faculty on the 23ih of A pril last.
When at Forrest Oily, I neglected
to write down tlio name ot your
'(•bool and the initial ofyourgiven
name. So when I was preparing
matter for tho catalogue, I wrote
the address “Forrest City" and left
ii blank line for the correct name
ot tho school and j our name as
principal with the correct initial,
intending to write j on for them
But as a good deal of copy was
gotten ready beyond the list of ac
credited schools, and the whole
batch sent to tho printer, I simply
forgot to write you for information
sous to till the blank lino reserved
for your school, the matter also
escaped my notice, also when I
read the proof. I very much re
gret the omission—noticed it for
the first time to-day. Of course,
you are at liberty to make any use
you may deem proper of the fact
that jour school is duly accredited
to the University.
\\ ith best wishes, very truly,
J.NC 1,. BlcHANAN,
Pres. University Ark.
