American Missionary Association, 38 Lombard Block, Chicago, Nov 3rd 1869 Secretaries: GEORGE WHIPPLE, } New York. MICHAEL E. STRIEBY, } CHARLES H. HOWARD, Dist. Sec'y, Chicago. Capt Wm. M. Colby Little Rock Ark, Dear Sir: Your favor relating to transfer of School buildings I have referred to my brother with request that he suspend for the present. Meanwhile Can you not prospect for us as to desirable sites to purchase and as to present composition of the board of trustees. They might I suppose be changed at least by addition of new members so that the control would rest virtually with us i.e. you & A.M.A. Maj. Clark will probably return from Indian Territory thro' Ark in Dec. but I would like information from you as far as practicable before. (over)
