what to do that you would carry it out to the letter and that he would improve. “Dick” has a researchable talent in that direction, and I am sure it comes from you. I longed to give him more training. I shall not be satisfied until I can get him. The dear lad is so handsome physically, bright mentally, and so pure and wholesome, that I do not wonder at him being a general favorite I do not blame you at all for being a little jealous, because he is such a loveable boy. I am so glad you told me about his religious beliefs, the dear fellow never said anything to me about it, and I never asked him, because he lived it, I did not need to. I hope you had a wonderful birthday, I wish dear “Dick” could have been with you. I know you prize the book, “Gods Open" very much indeed, and this season of the year is the most pleasant reminder of God’s, marvelous handiwork. I can readily see where the dear boy gets his love of nature and desire for investigation

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.
