What I desire more especially to know is whether you will sell the building to the church provided the Board will not do the fair thing, and if you think $200.00 not enough say what the lowest figures are that you will you take, and how much time you can give us. You gave me the assurance the week before that we should not be disturbed about the house.

The proposition to sell out was new & when you left I had not had time to canvass it properly. Those colored men & the Church are anxious to have me stay with them and if you will continue to favor us in the future as in the past we shall succeed, and I will stay & see them out.
