I have it handsomely fitted up- some, in fact all say it is the best room in College. Charly.Leitch rooms with Me, rather strange a freshman in Senior rooms. I am well pleased with this place - think it a very desirable place for a college. I shall present that </u specimen > to the H. I. I think , I have just ^had^ completed a fine Mineral Case, it looks swell.
