Washington, D.C. Jan 20. 1889

Dear Sir
In reply to your letter of the [[23rd?]] inst, at hand to-day, allow me to say that the letters received by the American Colonization Society are bound, quarterly, and your request cannot, therefore, well be honored.

I herewith mail you the "Half Century" Volume of the Society and several of its late pamphlet publications for your collection. 

Yours very truly, 
W^[[m]] Oppinger
Sec. A. C. S.

Rev W. Austin Esq
Sec: Trinity Historical Society.
