Letter of recommendation from Charles G. Smith: At the time of its opening Mr. 
S. J. Frew became connected with the House of Refuge for Western Pennsylvania 
as principal teacher of the boys.  I was a manager and on the committee which 
had charge of the schools, & thus had every opportunity of knowing him well.  I 
regard him as a good teacher & a discreet, prudent and conscientious man.  In 
short, he was one of the best officers we had in the institution while I was of 
its Board.  I was three years an officer.  Mr. F. has had some five years 
experience in the management, a part of the time as Assistant Superintendent & 
in my opinion is fully qualified for the control and superintendence of a House 
of Refuge or School of Reform.
