Message Abstract Requests information respecting a lease of school-house which he forwarded to the Baltimore. Asso. and which he learns has been transmitted to the Bureau.
Message Body As I cannot hear from you I will let you once more hear from me. I sent you a letter more than a fortnight before Christmas containing the lease of our school-house. I received a message from Jno. Core Actuary stating that he had forwarded the lease on to Mr. Jno. Kimbull of Washington since then I have written to Washington but have not received any answer. I sent the Lease to you wishing to know if it was formed correctly or not, I feel to be treated with much contempt about it for one of them might have sent me a note informing me whether it was right or wrong and why it was sent to Washington. I hope to hear from you soon getting a general satisfaction. Yours Respct.
