Thus everything is rendered subservient
to their devastating policy. Our endowments
of not less than one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars in America, and about
fifty thousand Dollars worth of real
estate here, besides the furnishing, are
all to be rendered futile should this
mischievous policy be allowed.

Again perhaps one may ask, if
it is proper at such a time as this to
send an open telegram by which methods
of demolishing our work are suggested
to those who wish us ill.

The British Ambassador has decided
that no school having fully complied
with the legal requirements may be
molested. And that no British school
may be closed without the knowledge
and consent of the British Ambassador.
Should United States citizens have
their rights restricted in a manner
by which all our schools can be
closed definitely, by a policy which
scarce has even a transparent
covering?
