June 1, 1905.
Dr. C. H. Levermore,
Adelphi College,
Brooklyn, N.Y.
My dear Dr. Levermore:
At the breakfast to President Roosevelt on Tuesday, Mr. Herman A. Metz was among those in attendance. I told him his name had been mentioned in connection with the trusteeship of Adelphi College and he immediately replied that he would like to be of service to the institution, and if he thought he could be of service in that capacity, he would be glad to do so. Of course, I did not offer him the trusteeship but only spoke of it; he is available, however, and I think he would make a good man.
I did not get back to New York until late on Monday and am, therefore, deluged with business and other matters. I have only five more days before sailing for Europe, and have just found that I must go to Albany tomorrow. I, therefore, fear it will be impossible for me to visit the College before my departure. I can meet you and some of the others, if it is absolutely necessary, before I go - possibly Saturday afternoon. I do not see how I can see you before that time and it will be difficult for me to do even that.
Hoping everything is getting along nicely with you.
Yours very sincerely,
