To Ministers of the Gospel & the Christian Public generally:
            I take sincere pleasure in introducing the bearer of this note, [[underline]] Mr. T.H. Tibbles [[/underlined]] of Omaha, Neb. & in commending the cause which he represents.
     The story of the Ponca Indians which he comes to tell is a story which no Christian heart can listen to without being profoundly moved. And the purpose for which he tells it, need only be unfolded to enlist the fervent sympathies of any friend of the Indian.
