This note went the round of the committee, and at last, after what appeared to me most tedious delay, formal leave was given me to better my condition if I could; and an assurance added, that as I had always conducted myself well, both as teacher and pupil, at Lowood, a testimonial of character and capacity, signed by the inspectors of that institution, should forthwith be furnished me.
Továbbá: minthogy sohasem volt ellenem kifogás, a felügyelő bizottság aláírásával fogja igazolni, hogy erkölcsi s minden egyéb tekintetben alkalmas vagyok az új munkakör betöltésére.
