Description
W. R. Spencer writes to Lee regarding his low grades and eventual dropping of his algebra class. He says that the teacher would not allow them to get help from anyone and that he would make them come up to the board to attempt to work the problem knowing they did not know how to work it. Professor Jayne responds by saying that the student did not apply himself faithfully and that is the reason he was forced to drop the class. December 5, 1883.
