Rev. Mr. Allen

Kenyon College

June 20th 1827

Rev & Dear Brother

Pray advise with Mr. Bacon. I am so far off I can not. All monies collected please send to Mr. Kip, NYork, with the names of the subscribers. Pray do this immediately. The trustees have ordered all the subscribers names to be published and I should be sorry to see any omitted. Send them to Mr. Kip.

The Rev. Mr. West far exceeds my expectations and the plans alluded to, when you saw me in N.York are far greater than thought of. It is the Lords work!

Your faithful & grateful Brother

Phir. Chase

Address me as dated.
