Has been requested by a poor woman of the county to seek admission for her about six-year-old daughter but is unable to pay for expenses. This letter is a favor to the mother as Gilkeson does not think Stribling can receive and manage a child of her age. Does Stribling have room of the other "lunatic" that he wrote about some months ago. Please inform him of Miss Davis' condition at this time.
