The Field of Effort of your Society is one in which there felt much interest, but my present circumstances, being not yet free from the debts contracted for my own education have not permitted me the pleasure of assisting in it, except by my prayers.

With the highest respect and sincerest wishes for your success permit me to subscribe myself your brother in Cherish.

Mr. C. J. J. Ingersell Greenfield Map

I have received via Northfield, the first number of the "American Republic." and am happy to become a Subscriber. The Freelore Cause is one I am much interested, and for which I should have been glad to use my pen or choice if my time and attention had not been all employed in other duties.

As it is quite uncertain I remain long in this sincerity, I will send you only $1.00. A{??}resem please direct to my address at Grouts, either by Mail or Express.

My best wishes for your success and prosperity.

I.S.M.
