“Dick” has a creative mind, and if I could have him as I would like, I think he knows enough Chemistry now, to develop his creative genius, at all events I could teach him what he was deficient in. Let us pray very hard and faithfully that something will develop by next Sept. at least. I too want to see him making more progress than is true at this time. He does seem to be getting much out of his trip out in Washington. He said to me a few weeks ago that he thought he would fit him up a little laboratory out there where he could do some work. I thought it a fine idea. I, no doubt, will have to go to Los Angeles, Calif. this fall, every letter he writes, he is urging me to come on up and see him. I cannot tell whether it will be possible for me to do so or not, I would so much rather see him, much nearer home, He says there is no race prejudice out there and we could have a good time. Thank you so much for your beautiful Christmas letter, I am glad you sent it just as it is so genuine, a

In this letter of April 14, 1926, George Washington Carver writes to Mrs. J.H. (Margaret Gillespie) Slagle, informing her of his concerns about a delay in the work of the Carver Products Company regarding paint production before discussing his desire to teach and mentor her son and the difficulty that race relations in the South pose to that endeavor. He indicates that he hears from her son regularly and writes about what he has learned from him about his education before discussing the possibility of visiting him in Washington during a planned trip to Los Angeles. He briefly mentions his gratitude at Mr. Slagle's improving health and her son's religious faith before discussing how Mrs. Slagle's interest in nature has passed to her son. He then reiterates his hopes of teaching her son and closes by thanking Mrs. Slagle for her letter and offering his prayers for her family, with special emphasis on Mr. Slagle's health.
