Ala to be sure to stop at Tuskegee Institute, I would so love to have any of them. I hear from that darling boy “Dick” quite often now, he seems to be very happy in his work, and making a good start, which I am sure will become easier and easier as he gets accustomed to the routine. Your great Christian spirit has been such a source of comfort and inspiration to me. These fine apples are to me so much more than so many delicious apples. They mean to me the great Christ spirit, which prompted the gift, they only thing that makes life really worth living.

In this letter of October 30, 1928, George Washington Carver writes to Mrs. J.H. (Margaret Gillespie) Slagle recounting the first time he met her son, Thomas (Dick), and the potential for achievement he saw in Dick. He tells how knowing Dick, and the Slagle family through him, has brought him joy, and shares that he is open to having any of the Slagle family visit him in Alabama. Carver closes by thanking Mrs. Slagle for the comfort he has gotten from her Christian spirit and offers his prayers for her and her family.
