I am now very glad that they have expressed themselves openly, and wish you to retain the communication written by them, as it involves several other parties who have a right to know what interests them so intimately. I have seen Brn. Robinson and Shuby as their names were brought into affair. (I think there were others whom I do not recollect) I send you the answer of Robinson, and Shuby says that he knows nothing detrimental to her character or school, and has given no occasion for the use of his name in any such connection. I am sorry for your sake as well as our own that these unpleasant things have come upon your hands, but those who have brought it about must bear the responsibility, and submit themselves to the rebound of the missiles which they have so cruelly and ruthlessly cast at the heads of others

Fraternally Yours
