I am not able to promise you any aid at present as I have many applications on hand which were received before yours, and must be attended to first. I hope you will go on and complete the house, and after that is done, if it is possible for me to aid you in any way I will do so. I enclose your paper. Very Respectfully, Yours, W. L.
