Abstract
J. P. Riach letter to Justin Perkins in which Riach thanks Perkins for his letter and the American Missionary Report. He writes regarding the book and the efforts of Perkins' Society (the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions). Riach says that he fears he cannot hear from Perkins for sometime due to the Winter in Azerbijan (Azerbaijan) and notes that he finds the account of the Nestorian members of Perkins' family interesting. He provides recommendations for physicians based on his experience of medical practice in Persia. Riach shares that the Shah continues to say he will march on Herat in Spring. He also mentions Mr. Ellis, Mr. McNeill, and the status of the plague in the region.
