Dover. Del. Nov. 27 '68
Rev. R. M. Manley

Dear Bu. 

Will not you do me the favour to forward the enclosed application to Gen. Howard with your endorsement and ask Gen. Brown to do the same? I have made application for an appt. in Va. where I would prefer it to any other state, (though I would accept it in any other) [[strikethrough]] state [[/strikethrough]] unless it could be in Md. or Del.

My pay, as Missionary (as I have said to you verbally) is inadequate and I must seek a supplement to it in some way.

I am on a visit to my house but intend to return, via Washington, to Va. next mo. Any thing you or Gen.
