Rev R M Manly,

Dear Brother,
Mr Burbank called on me a few days since, & I had a pleasant interview with him. I was pleased with him & shall be happy to aid him. Fredericksburg is occupied, but I have put him in correspondence with reference to another field.

Mr Waring, I believe, has forwarded you the monthly reports of which you write, but as yet I have received no returns from the Bureau

Yours very truly
Edwin F Hatfield
