Mr. John Doe

New York, N. Y.
My Dear Mr. Doe:
You have already been notified that \ve have not received the first payment
on the accrued interest of your loan contract which was due December Ist. Up
to the present time we have neither received your remittance nor the courtesy
of a reply to our letter, although you promised when making application for a loan
that you would answer promptly all letters relating to the Obligation as long as
any part of the account remained unpaid.
We cannot understand your neglect, especially since your contract provides
that if on account of illness or loss of employment you cannot pay an installment,
you may request an extension of time by writing to the Harmon Foundation ten
days before the payment becomes due.
No banking Organization would keep your account open unless you gave
some indication of your good faith. The Harmon Foundation has the same
relationship toward you that a bank would have.
We shall expect payment of at least part of your account immediately.
Very truly yours,
Division of Student Loans
