Dear Sir-
I have just received information, that a Freedmen Association has been organized at Ogdensburg New York, independent of the N.Y. Society, and insist on returning Miss Lucy Eastman to this place - and furnishing Books &c. for the School. I am now engaged in perfecting the arrangements, so that she may commence her fall, session, Providence permitting, on the 1st day of October 18668

Very Respectfully
Your Ob't Servant
