Dear Sir
Your esteemed favour of the 12th was not recd till this morning, and I lose no time in sending you 12 of the appeals, and sincerely hope the good course, introduced by my good friend the Bishop of ohio, will meet with support in your place.
That you take an interest in that course, and are endeavouring to promote its success, is most welcome news to me, and I pray God to give you abundant means to do with good your benevolent heart inclines you to - I am happy to say it proceeds favourably here, and the support is pretty general. Difference in religious opinions does not exclude this cause, and it is supported by Christian benevolence.
With best wishes I am Dear Sir
Most respectfully
Yours
T. Wiggin
