DescriptionLetter written from E. I. College [Hertfordshire] dated 14 May. Dickinson describes his journey back to college and apologises for not having written sooner.

He writes that the monthly report is due next week, reminding her that although he missed the Mathematics examination 'it matters nothing, and has no influence upon the 'Term Examination''.
