Abstract
W. G. Schauffler letter to Justin Perkins in which Schauffler explains his delay in correspondence due to the winter his missionary circle had. He writes of their illnesses, their move to Bebek, and the fire in Pera (Beyoğlu) that consumed the houses of the Schaufflers, Dwight, and Homes. He notes that their chapel and Female Seminary in the houses of Goodell and Everett were preserved. He discusses Merrick's Appeal and his and his wife's attempts to dissuade Merrick from such a step. Schauffler thanks Perkins for his copy of the Nestorian N. T. (New Testament) and mentions the copies for Germany. He references the circular of Stoddard with facts regarding their Patriarch and writes further about the fire.
