Havana October 4/905

Mr. C. L. Gadsden.

My very good sir.

Have the goodness to tell me if  you can direct a way in the Academy that one could enter and do their studies of English, a nineteen year old youth, who did not know it, here in this institute of studies of the Baccalaureate; I want to learn English correctly and later when it is possible to acquire the knowledge in Commerce to dedicate to a business.

I await your reply your humble servant, 

[illegible] de Jimenez

Col. T. Tesquina to (upper) Villegas

Have the goodness to tell me if there has begun to be a course to enter in this year and with those same costs and stipulations for this prospect.

Reply with urgency,

Vale
