Title
David McDonogh to Walter Lowrie
Description
David is so busy that he has not had time to write nor exercise.

"I have frequently heard remarked, by those who have past through the college course that the Sophmore year is the hardest one a student meets with, throughout his whole collegiate course."

"I will not be understood here as complaining with my lot; no, far from it; I rather rejoice at the idea of being busy in a good cause..."

David requests to go to New York for next vacation in order to see the new mission house and get his watch repaired.

David asks about Washington's trip to Liberia. He is supposed to leave in April.
