3 much younger boys - not over 4 or at most 5. We thought they were more suitable under all the circumstances. We agreed that the sooner they could be sent the better. I hope you will approve. The detailed report I will hand in next week, but I promised Mrs. Price to write you on these points at once.
Yours sincerely
E.W.W. Wakefield
