Nottingham, Feb. 1st 1870 Maj. Vanderslip, Sir, I herewith acknowledge receipt of $20, for salary for the month of December 1869. I am very thankful for the "New Era", sent me. I would like to contribute, if I was able, but must decline from want of sufficient funds, I hope, however, that it may be a perfect success. My best wishes for its welfare. I deem it an important and useful acquisition to our people Very respectfully, [[signature]] Jane T. Knight. [[/signature]]
