WASHINGTON, D. C. Jany 23d, 1888

Prof. Chas E Bessey,
(University) Lincoln Neb.
My Dear Sir
Your letter of Jan 19th/88 in regard to item in Deficiency bill for agricultural Exp. stations was received. The bill has passed the House and will doubtless pass the Senate this week and become a law probably. The delay of course was owing to the neglect of the Democratic House to have the Deficiency bill ready for action last [ ]
Very Truly Yours
Chas F Manderson
