| Abstract | F.B. Banister letter to Justin Perkins in which Banister explains that she was asked by Miss Wheelwight to contribute this letter to a box for Perkins. She writes of books that she had hoped to add to the box but could not and of other publications she still hopes to add. She remarks on the current political situation in the United States, saying that perhaps more than anything else they should fear a struggle with the Catholics. Banister also writes regarding her faith in God, Perkins' missionary work, and another missionary’s account that she heard. F.B. Banister may stand for Frances B. Banister. |
