Rev. D. Burt.
Supt. Ed. Oc

Dear Bro,
We have considerable difficulty in regard to the appointment at Lebanon. But Mr. Knight assures me that Mr. Sharp is all right and that he could not be removed without gross injustice. Mr. Sharp and wife will remain at Lebanon and I am not certain that we shall deem it best to take hold of Alexandria, you need not wait an hour for us if any other Soc. will occupy the ground. More inviting fields in other states are urgently inviting us. Send me your conditions in regard to Alex- and we will decide instante. Will you hear my kind regard to Prof Ogden and his associates? 
Respectfully yours
R.S. Rust.
