Description

David traveled by steam boat. He met men from the Board of Foreign Mission. One old gentleman advised David in regard to his studies and future usefulness.
Once he arrived in Elizabeth town, he took a steam car to Somerville, where he continued to Easton.
David conversed with Doctor H.H. Abernathy on the subject of studying medicine with him. David plans to study under Dr. Abernathy for two hours a day. At that rate, he would be able to graduate in three years.
"I want to get at it as soon and I can."
David and Washington's summer session begins next Thursday.
"Mr. J.M.L. is here with us."
