My dear Governor:
The Academy Alumni Association will have its next "smoker" in our Gymnasium on Thursday evening, December 23, beginning at eight o'clock. On that occasion the members of the 1909 Academy Football team will be present as guests, and will receive from the Association certain beautiful and substantial tokens of appreciation of their splendid work upon that team.
The officers of the Association have asked me to extend in their name to all the masculine members of the Board a most cordial invitation to attend this meeting and join in the festivities. I wish to add a hearty second to this invitation. These young men worked hard and faithfully throughout the Fall, and rendered a great service to the school. They won every game that they played, and placed the Academy in the front rank of Brooklyn schools in the important department of athletics. They have merited our praise and gratitude. It will stimulate the enthusiasm of the boys and also of the Alumni to see a goodly number of the Trustees manifesting interest in the Academy by being present at this final scene of the football season.
Please record in your memorandum the time and place of this meeting of the Association, and, if you possibly can, let us have the pleasure of your company.
Yours very sincerely,
Charles H. Levermore
Hon. Timothy L. Woodruff
New York City
