Dear Sir
I have the pleasure of informing you that my application to the Auxiliary Society at Albany N. Y. to adopt your daughter Katie, as teacher to the freed people, in your city, has proved successful.  To day I have received the information that the Albany Society guarantee her support.

I hope this will prove acceptable to both you & your daughter.

Will you favor me with your daughters name in full, as it should appear in her commission.  & also inform me at at what time her services commenced.  On the receipt of her name & date of service, I will make out her papers & forward them to you.

Very respectfully
James J. Woolsey
