Letter to the Headmaster for Fee Concession
The Headmaster,
Grant Road High School,
Mombai.
Sir, most humbly and respectfully I beg to apply for full fee concession, as my family is passing through extremely straitened circumstances, and lay down the following facts for your kind consideration sympathetic action:
- I have passed the Middle School Examination very creditable, despite the heavy odds that I have to battle against both on the economic and the education fronts.
- My father is an assistant in the Mumbai Secretariat, getting less than two thousands rupees a month while he has twenty mouths to feed at home.
- I am a refugee from Pakistan where we have lost our all and have not received a pennyworth of cash or kind from the Government of India or the Government of Mumbai.
- I have been systematically getting full- fee concession during the last four years that I have had the honour of studying in this school.
- I am prepared to perform any kind of part-time work at school. If necessary, in lieu of my school fees.
Sanguinely believing that out of your large- heartedness you will kindly grant me full- fee concession as during the previous years.
I beg to remain,
Sir,
Your most obedient student,
Nanik Matwani
