Dear Mr. Wilson: 

Your fine painting, "End of Day", has arrived safely here in Murray. The entire committee is quite excited over your work, and we are delighted to have it. We are also deeply appreciative of the concession you made to our limited budget and we are grateful for your favor. 

We hope that you will be able to visit out exhibition on your next trip home. It is of especial encouragement to our own students to have one of our finest works of art done by a person from this vicinity. We are all pleased to learn that you have been awarded Fellowship and send our congratulations and best wishes for another successful year. 

I am enclosing a check for the painting. 

Cordially yours, 
Clara M. Eagle, Head
Department of Art
