Rev. W.F. Mitchell, Sec &c

Dear Sir:
 I write in behalf of your two teachers in this city - James [[Bowser??]] & Wm [[Roane?]] - who are to receive from your Soc .$15 per mo. each from the 1st of Oct. It is now going on five months that they have been at work without any pay, and as I was, instrumentally responsible for their appointment, they hold me morally responsible for their troubles. They have had to borrow money to get along with their board, clothing, &c expenses, and are not able to repay. What can I say to them?

The schools of these young men are under my daily observation, and I can testify they are large and well conducted schools.

Very Resply

R. M Manly
