tor Of the Boston Transcript ID rustcatng at Gloua
cester, Cape Ann, Massachusetts, and writes home
that he has had there an interview with the vene-
rable Master Tappan, who had Daniel Webster fer
pupil some fifty or sixty years ago. A previous
letter of Mr.. Sargent falling under the eye of Mr.
Webster, "the next day." says the Gloucester Tt-
lsgraph, "NIaster Tappan received a very friendly
communication from Mr.. Webster, enclosing
liberal donation, and stating that he had noticed
in the papers tina. he was still enjoying his intel
lectual facultics. This promptness to express his
gratitude to an old school teacher, upon having
his attention called to him by a newspaper para
graph, and to assist him in his old age. is certainly
worry generous in Mr.. Webster, and shows that al
thnngh he has the affairs Of the State to engross
his attention, he has still time TO remember the
friends of bis childhood. This is not tho fret time
Mr.. Webster has remembered his old teacher, and
this notice was as unexpected as 1t was accept
able" The sum enclosed in Mr. Webster's letter
was fifty dollars-a second donation of a like
amount sent by him to Master Tappan during the
last two ycare.
